SSL VPN Virtual Appliance as License Server <-> MAG Appliance as License Member?

Hi,

If SSL VPN Virtual Appliance acts as License Server, can we activate MAG Appliance as License Member?

Is it compulsory that SSL VPN Virtual Appliance requires subscription license?

Re: SSL VPN Virtual Appliance as License Server <-> MAG Appliance as License Member?

Michael, unless Juniper has had a recent change in heart I do not believe that an SSL Virtual Appliance can act as a license server. However, multiple types of MAGs, SAs, ICs and the VA-SPE can be license clients.

If I recall correctly, the LICENSE-MBR licenses are only needed if you wish to surrender existing client licenses up to your license server so that they can be shared.

Check out the license management guide here: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/ive/guides/j-sa-sslvpn-7.4-licensemgmt.pdf

Also, I'm attaching a screenshot of the various client options that I see on my license server. I hope this helps.

Virtual appliance do not allow to install licenses directly on them. A Virtual appliance can be only a license menbers.

Therefore, can we we make a statement that "SSL VPN Virtual Appliance can act as a license member and supports both perpenture (from license Server) and subscription licenses as a stand SSL VPN box"?

Re: SSL VPN Virtual Appliance as License Server <-> MAG Appliance as License Member?

Thus, SSL VPN virtual appliance can only support as a license member, right?

We can use subscription licenses on the SSL VPN virtual appliance, right?

What is the part number for the actual SA SSL VPN Virtual Appliance (DTE or SPE)?
