Cisco Firepower 2100 User Manual

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) For the Context license, enter the number of contexts.
You can use 2 contexts without a license. The maximum number of contexts depends on your model:
• Firepower 2110—25 contexts
• Firepower 2120—25 contexts
• Firepower 2130—30 contexts
• Firepower 2140—40 contexts
For example, to use the maximum of 25 contexts on the Firepower 2110, enter 23 for the number of
contexts; this value is added to the default of 2.
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.
