Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product. Learn more about how Cisco is using Inclusive Language.

Note: Licenses Renewal:
You receive alerts when your licenses expire. These alerts are sent on the following days prior to expiration: 90, 60, 30, 17, 7, 4 and 3. These expiration alerts are also listed under Alerts in Cisco Smart Software Manager (CSSM). You can place a license renewal order on Cisco Commerce Workspace (CCW) directly or with your Partner's help after receiving an alert. License registration is automatically renewed every 30 days. Authorization periods are renewed by the Smart Licensing system every 30 days.
If the license is Authorized or Out-of-Compliance (OOC), then the authorization period is renewed. Grace periods start when an authorization period expires. During the grace period or when the grace period is Expired, the system continues to try renewing the authorization period. A new authorization period starts if a retry is successful.
Troubleshooting:
If you experience an issue with this process, that you cannot address, please open a Licensing case at Support Case Manager (SCM) using Software Licensing option.
