Parameters

chassis chassis-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device. (In IRF mode.)

Usage guidelines

Each device has a unique SN and DID. When you register a license for a device, you must provide its SN and DID.

The DID changes each time you use the license compress command to compress the license storage. Use the display license device-id command to identify the up-to-date DID each time you register licenses.

The DID is generated as a string. Enter the string when you register the license with the license center.

Examples

# (In standalone mode.) Display the device SN and DID.

<Sysname> display license device-id

SN: 210231A1U5B142900085

license activation-file install

Use license activation-file install to install an activation file.

Syntax

In standalone mode:

license activation-file install file-name

In IRF mode:

license activation-file install file-name chassis chassis-number

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

mdc-admin

Parameters

file-name: Specifies the file path, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 127 characters. The activation file must be valid and stored on the device.

chassis chassis-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device. (In IRF mode.)

Usage guidelines

To install a license activation file successfully, make sure the SN and DID used for registering the feature license matches the current SN and DID of the device.

You can install the activation files of multiple licenses for a feature. The feature can be used as long as one of the licenses is valid.

Activation files are device locked. A licensed feature is still licensed on the device where its activation file is installed even after the device joins another IRF fabric.

Examples

# (In standalone mode.) Install the activation file 20130810.ak.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license activation-file install flash:/license/20130810.ak

This operation might take some time. Do not perform any other operations until the operation is completed or a failure message is displayed. Please wait... Done.

# (In IRF mode.) Install the activation file 20130813.ak on IRF member device 2.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license activation-file install flash:/license/20130813.ak chassis 2

This operation might take some time. Do not perform any other operations until the operation is completed or a failure message is displayed. Please wait... Done.

license activation-file uninstall

Parameters

file-name: Specifies the file path, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 127 characters.

chassis chassis-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device. (In IRF mode.)

Usage guidelines

A feature cannot run after you uninstall all of its activation files.

Use this command to revoke an unexpired license if you want to transfer the license from one device to another.

When an activation file is uninstalled, the system creates an Uninstall file. Use this file together with the SN and DID of the transfer destination to register the license for the transfer destination.

Trial licenses are not transferrable. When you uninstall the activation file of a trial license, no Uninstall file is created.

Examples

# (In standalone mode.) Uninstall the activation file flash:/license/20130810.ak.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license activation-file uninstall flash:/license/20130810.ak

This operation might take some time. Do not perform any other operations until the operation is completed or a failure message is displayed. Please wait... Done.

Uninstall file: flash:/license/20130810.uak

# (In IRF mode.) Uninstall the activation file flash:/license/20130813.ak from IRF member device 2.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license activation-file uninstall flash:/license/20130813.ak chassis 2

This operation might take some time. Do not perform any other operations until the operation is completed or a failure message is displayed. Please wait... Done.

Use license compress to compress the license storage.

Syntax

Predefined user roles

Parameters

chassis chassis-number: Specifies the member ID of an IRF member device. (In IRF mode.)

Usage guidelines

	CAUTION: The DID changes each time the license storage is compressed. Before performing a compression, make sure all activation files generated based on the old DID have been installed. They cannot be installed after the compression.

 

Use this command if the free license storage (see the display license feature command) is not sufficient.

This command clears invalid licenses (expired licenses and uninstalled licenses) and Uninstall keys from the license storage area. Back up the Uninstall keys before you compress the license storage.

Examples

# (In standalone mode.) Compress the license storage.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] license compress

This command will delete all data relevant to uninstalled and expired keys/licenses, including Uninstall keys, and create a new device ID for activation keys/files. Make sure you have saved the Uninstall keys so you can apply for a new activation key/file for the unexpired licenses that were covered by the uninstalled activation keys/files.

Are you sure you want to continue? [Y/N]: Y

This operation might take some time. Do not perform any other operations until the operation is completed or a failure message is displayed. Please wait... Done.
