The administrator wants to know how to get the AppSecure license on the SRX device.

Cause:

An AppSecure license is not needed on the following SRX devices:

SRX300
SRX320
SRX340
SRX345
SRX1500
SRX4100
SRX4200
SRX4600

For more information, refer to Predefined Application Signatures for Application Identification.

Example from this documentation

Starting from Junos OS release 15.1X49-D65 and Junos OS release 17.3R1, on SRX4100 and SRX4200 devices, AppSecure is part of the Junos Software Enhanced (JSE) license package (a default shipping software package). A separate license key is, therefore, not required on your device to download and install the AppID signature database updates, or to use other AppSecure features such as AppFW, AppQoS, and AppTrack.

Solution:

No license key enforcement is needed to use AppSecure on the above-mentioned SRX devices. However, customers should purchase the license that includes AppSecure for the right to use the feature.

Modification History:

2018-12-11: Solution section updated to include information about purchasing a license that includes AppSecure for the right to use the feature
