Document Number 78-19893-01

This document provides important license and documentation information for the Cisco Secure Access Control System 5.3 (ACS), a centralized network identity and access control system.

Software License Claim CertificateA Product Authorization Key (PAK) for each Cisco Secure ACS 5.3 that you purchase is affixed as a sticky label at the bottom of the Software License Claim Certificate card included in your package. Carefully follow the instructions on this card to perform customer registration via the Internet.

You must submit the PAK that you received to obtain valid license files for your system. For each PAK that you submit, a license file is generated and sent to you as an email, which you should save to disk. You must install these license files on your Cisco Secure ACS later.
