You can install multiple VM licenses based on the number of VMs and their resources as per your deployment requirements. For instance, if you are using 3595 equivalent VM node with 8 cores and 64 GB RAM, you might need a Medium category VM license, if you want to replicate the same capabilities on the VM. VM licenses are offered under three categories-Small, Medium, and Large. Otherwise, you will receive warnings and notifications to procure and install the VM license keys in Release 2.4, however, the services are not interrupted. You must install the VM licenses based on the number of VM nodes and each VM node’s resources such as CPU and memory. For Release 2.4, it is recommended that you install appropriate VM licenses for the VM nodes in your deployment. Evaluation license supports one Device Administration node.Ĭisco ISE is also sold as a virtual appliance. You can add multiple Device Administration licenses to your deployment based on the number of Device Administration nodes that you require. If you install a PAK generated from a new PID, Device Administration license count is displayed as per the quantity available in the PAK file. If you are currently using a Device Administration license and plan to upgrade to Release 2.4, TACACS+ features will be supported for 50 Device Administration nodes in Release 2.4. Starting from Cisco ISE 2.4, the number of Device Administration licenses must be equal to the number of device administration nodes (PSNs configured for device administration service) in a deployment. Please read before upgrading to 2.4 ? – ”įor Cisco ISE 2.3 and earlier versions, a perpetual Device Administration license is required per deployment, regardless of the number of device administration nodes in the deployment.Details on VMs – small, medium, large tshirt sizes.Best Practices Deploying ISE in Dynamic Environment.
