Multiple firewall licenses on the same security gateway

net-harry — Thu, 17 Oct 2019 14:36:57 GMT

If we have a security gateway running a 2-core firewall-only license (CPSG-2C-FW) and we need additional capacity, could we purchase an additional CPSG-2C-FW and be licensed for 4 cores on the security gateway or do we need to purchase CPSG-4C-NGTP (4 cores with Next Generation Threat Prevention)?

Thanks,

Harry

These are unfortunately not additive - so you have to do a trade-in for a CPSG-4C-something license.

Thanks for the information! I think it is unfortunate that the licenses are not additive, especially if we need only the firewall feature and not the next generation features.

Best regards,

Harry
