3. License Requirements
Firepower Threat Defense devices require Cisco Smart Licensing. Smart Licensing lets you purchase and manage
a pool of licenses centrally. Unlike product authorization key (PAK) licenses, Smart Licenses are not tied to a
specific serial number or license key. Smart Licensing lets you assess your license usage and needs at a glance.
In addition, Smart Licensing does not prevent you from using product features that you have not yet purchased.
You can start using a license immediately, as long as you are registered with the Cisco Smart Software Manager,
and purchase the license later. This allows you to deploy and use a feature, and avoid delays due to purchase order
approval.
When you purchase one or more Smart Licenses for Firepower features, you manage them in the Cisco Smart
Software Manager: http://www.cisco.com/web/ordering/smart-software-manager/index.html. The Smart
Software Manager lets you create a master account for your organization. For more information about the Cisco
Smart Software Manager, see the Cisco Smart Software Manager User Guide.
Your purchase of a Firepower Threat Defense device or Firepower Threat Defense Virtual automatically includes a
Base license. All additional licenses (Threat, Malware, or URL Filtering) are optional. For more information about
Firepower Threat Defense licensing, see the "Licensing the System" chapter of the
Defense Configuration Guide for Firepower Device
