Obtaining a DES License or a
3DES-AES License
Cisco adaptive security appliances are available either with a DES or 3DES-ASE
license that provides encryption technology to enable specific features, such as
secure remote management (SSH, ASDM, and so on), site-to-site VPN, and
remote access VPN. The license is enabled through an encryption license key.
If you ordered your adaptive security appliance with a DES or 3DES-AES license,
the encryption license key comes with the adaptive security appliance.
If you are a registered user of Cisco.com and would like to obtain a 3DES/AES
encryption license, go to the following website:

If you are not a registered user of Cisco.com, go to the following website:
https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/Licensing/RegistrationServlet
Provide your name, e-mail address, and the serial number for the adaptive security
appliance as it appears in the show version command output.
Note You will receive the new activation key for your adaptive security appliance
within two hours of requesting the license upgrade.
For more information on activation key examples or upgrading software, see the
Cisco Security Appliance Command Line Configuration Guide.
