Configure the ASA
The ASA registers with the Smart Software Manager using the pre-configured outside interface, and requests
authorization for the configured license entitlements. The Smart Software Manager also applies the Strong
Encryption (3DES/AES) license if your account allows. ASDM refreshes the page when the license status is
updated. You can also choose Monitoring > Properties > Smart License to check the license status,
particularly if the registration fails.
Step 7
Set the following parameters:
a) Check Enable Smart license configuration.
b) From the Feature Tier drop-down list, choose Essentials.
Only the Essentials tier is available.
c) (Optional) Check Enable Security Plus.
The Security Plus tier enables Active/Standby failover.
Step 8
Click Apply.
Step 9
Click the Save icon in the toolbar.
Step 10
Quit ASDM and relaunch it.
When you change licenses, you need to relaunch ASDM to show updated screens.
Configure the ASA
Using ASDM, you can use wizards to configure basic and advanced features. You can also manually configure
features not included in wizards.
