Supported Feature Licenses Per Model
ASA 5585-X with SSP-40 and -60
If you have a No Payload Encryption model, then some of the features in Table 3- 14 are not supported.
See the “No Payload Encryption Models” section on page3-30 for a list of unsupported features.
Note (8.4(2) and later) For SSP-40 and SSP-60, you can use two SSPs of the same level in the same chassis.
Mixed-level SSPs are not supported (for example, an SSP-40 with an SSP-60 is not supported). Each
SSP acts as an independent device, with separate configurations and management. You can use the two
SSPs as a failover pair if desired. When using two SSPs in the chassis, VPN is not supported; note,
however, that VPN has not been disabled.
