Configure Versa Secure Access Subscriptions
For supported software information, click here.
The Versa secure access (VSA) service allows you to configure a Versa Operating SystemTM (VOSTM) device to be a secure access portal or a secure access gateway so that a VSA client can connect to it. To use the VSA service, each authorized user who is allowed to access the VSA client service must have an on-premises VSA subscription license. The license entitles the named user to connect to any branch or hub device.
You can configure the number of VSA licenses for both standard and advanced users in each organization. After you configure the VSA subscription information, it is tracked in the subscription monthly report, the entitlement report, and on the Entitlement Manager query page.
The following table lists the features that are included in the standard license and the advanced license.
