Hi Kamal,
Many thanks for your reply.
I was actually referring to the ASA platform.
The requirement on a PIX is very clear as its documented
several times on CCO.
Unfortunately, I haven't come across any document which clarifies the
license requirement for BOTH units to run failover on the ASA platform.
Its clear that one unit MUST have Security Plus license,
the question was about the second unit.

Hi Zahid,
No. You need not have security plus on both for failover to work. Whoever
says that you need it, is wrong. In order to have failover work, you need
security plus on atleast one box, the other might have "failover only"
license. But if you want Active/Active failover to work, then you need
security plus on both.

Dear All,
Can anyone please clarify if its really necessary
to have two ASA 5510 with Security Plus license.
Will failover configuration work if one is with
Security Plus and the other with Base license ?
Thanks in advance for any input on this.
