Cisco RDG-5ASUS-SMS-1K Secure Add-On for 5 Alteon VAs | Licensing — RDG-5ASUS-SMS-1K

Protect five Alteon VAs or vADCs with a Cisco secure add-on subscription built for ongoing software maintenance. This entitlement is designed for teams that need to keep virtual delivery infrastructure current without fragmenting update coverage across multiple instances. By tying security maintenance to the covered deployment, the subscription helps reduce operational risk and supports a cleaner lifecycle strategy. That matters in environments where application delivery, traffic management, and uptime expectations leave little room for stale software. It also gives procurement a clear recurring model for maintaining the software estate rather than funding patch access reactively. For infrastructure teams, the advantage is consistency. The same update path applies across the covered five-instance scope, which simplifies planning and helps keep the environment aligned with vendor-issued security maintenance. It is a practical fit for organizations that value controlled change, predictable coverage, and a stronger security baseline for virtual Alteon deployments.
