Cisco Secure Firewall 3100 ASA Smart License

The license feature Encryption-3DES-AES was disabled by default and I needed to add the Standard Smart license (Essential license) for the Cisco Secure Firewall FPR 3110. The Cisco Smart Software Manager (CSSM) has allowed the Export-Controlled for its registration token by default. Refer to this link.

Essentials license: -L-FPR3110-BSE=. The Essentials license is a required license.

Strong Encryption (3DES/AES) license: -L-FPR3K-ENC-K9=. Only required if your account is not authorized for strong encryption.
