We have one of these units brand new in the box probably bought new more than 12 months ago.
If I upgrade to v8 can this be used at a small home office and can you really do real SSL VPN, i.e., without client software?
I checked out the website to download the latest OS and I noticed there is something called AnyConnect which says it is required for SSL VPN. WTF?
Can you please confirm?
Thanks!

V8 allows you to use either the client less version of VPN, it also allows for the anyconnect software.
Although after having reading that, it looks like the ssl client less version allows web applications and allows plugins for RDP and Citrix. It looks like it has changed from what I remember.... Maybe I did not get to Version 8....

You need to have a license to enable ssl vpn. So you may have the hardware (with v7 or v8 software installed) but without the license ssl vpn won't work.
ASA comes with 2 licenses in some bundles. But it sounds like the OP has it working and wishes to upgrade.
