ReSTNSX Licensing
​Announcing the Enterprise+ feature set for ReSTNSX. Enterprise+ includes licenses for NSX-v to T migration. Instead of purchasing separate Migration Assistance Tool (MAT) licenses separately, customers can combine both licenses under an Enterprise+ license.
Platform Overview
ReSTNSX is feature-rich platform for deployment and Day 2 operations of VMware's NSX solution. From unified management of multiple NSX domains to bulk object creation, ReSTNSX offers tremendous value to Networking, Security and Virtualization teams alike.
​
The solution is delivered as a virtual appliance with a licensing model aligned to VMware's NSX per CPU model. For every VMware NSX license active in NSX Manager, there must be a corresponding ReSTNSX license of either Enterprise or Enterprise+. Both license tiers are available as Perpetual or Subscription-based.
​
In addition to product licensing, SKU or Statement-of-Work (SoW) based Professional Services are available for installation, configuration and training of ReSTNSX. Professional Services hours can also be applied towards a SoW for converting legacy firewall rulesets to NSX.

License Tiers
ReSTNSX is available as either Enterprise or Enterprise+ editions that can be licensed as perpetual or an annual subscription. Both editions include the base appliance and an optional support & upgrade contract that provides technical support and software upgrades for the duration of the term.
With perpetual, the customer owns the licenses indefinitely and can add feature licenses plus support contracts . In contrast, a subscription model entitles a customer to all the features of a given edition (Standard, Enterprise) for the duration of the contract. The benefits of the ReSTNSX subscription model is that it enables a more predictable pay-as-you-grow licensing structure with the convenience of a single SKU for ordering.
Enterprise Licensing
ReSTNSX Enterprise is an all-in-one license part number that provides all features with no restrictions. This includes features such as vRNI Planner, ASA Planner and all the native automation and troubleshooting capabilities of ReSTNSX.

SOW Based Services
In addition to our standard deployment services, ReSTNSX offers firewall ruleset migration services. These services range from extracting existing firewall rulesets via REST API methods to CSV export. Our team has experience with most firewall vendor conversions, including - Cisco ASA, Juniper, Checkpoint and NSX-v. With both methods, the ReSTNSX team extracts the existing configurations and processes them using a proprietary tool for optimizing (rule hit analysis, de-dupes) and converting to ReSTNSX format for deployment. For more information, please refer to the following data sheet or contact us to scope out an engagement.
*A valid support contract must be active for access to all future upgrades
