Configuring the Cisco IOS Software Activation Feature

This document describes the tasks used to activate software by using the Cisco IOS Software Activation feature, license keys, and Cisco EXEC commands. When you activate software from a Cisco device, you can license software without the need for additional application software.

Restrictions for Cisco IOS Software Activation

Not all Cisco hardware platforms can use the Cisco IOS Software Activation feature. Use the Cisco Feature Navigator at http://www.cisco.com/go/cfn and the table in the Feature Information for Cisco IOS Software Activation section to determine which platforms and images support the Cisco IOS Software Activation feature.

For the stackable switches that support the Cisco IOS Software Activation feature, one switch must act as primary and the others as secondaries. The primary switch performs management and administrative operations on itself as well as on the secondary switches.

Information About the Cisco IOS Software Activation

License Activation MIB Support

The Cisco IOS Software Activation feature introduces the CISCO-LICENSE-MGMT-MIB to allow SNMP-based license management and administrative tasks. A description of this MIB can be found by using tools at this URL: http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/MIBS/servlet/index

Use the MIB Locator tool and the Search for MIB selection box to select CISCO-LICENSE-MGMT-MIB .

The unique device identifier (UDI) is also associated with the Entity Name and Product Description data elements for the management information base (MIB) system. The MIB nomenclature for Entity Name is entPhysicalName and for Product Description is entPhysicalDescr.

How to Activate Software from a Cisco IOS Device

Installing and Upgrading Licenses by Using Software Activation Commands

Before you begin

Read and understand the license activation process concepts in the in the “Cisco IOS Software Activation Conceptual Overview” module.

To install or upgrade a license by using the license install command, you must have already received the license file from the Cisco Product License Registration portal at http://www.cisco.com/go/license (or you already backed up the license by using the license save command).

If you use Microsoft Entourage and receive the license file from Cisco in an e-mail attachment, the license file will contain UTF-8 marking. These extra bytes in the license file cause it to be unusable during license installation. To work around this issue, you can use a text editor to remove the extra characters and then install the license file. For more information about UTF-8 encoding, go to this URL: http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-utf8-bom.


Note

The installation process does not install duplicate licenses. This message appears when duplicate licenses are detected: 


Installing...Feature:xxx-xxx-xxx...Skipped:Duplicate

Note
A standby device reboots twice when there is a mismatch of licenses.

Procedure

Step 1

Obtain the PAK.

The PAK is provided to you when you order or purchase the right to use a feature set for a particular platform.

  • The PAK serves as a receipt and is used as part of the process to obtain a license.

Step 2

enable

Example:


Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 3

show license udi

Example:


Device# show license udi

Displays all the UDI values that can be licensed in a system.

  • You need the UDI of the device as part of the process to obtain a license.

Step 4

Convert the PAK to a license by entering the PAK and the UDI into the Cisco Product License Registration portal: http://www.cisco.com/go/license

After entering the appropriate information, you will receive an e-mail containing the license information that you can use to install the license:

  • Copy the license file received from the Cisco Product License Registration portal to the appropriate file system on the device.

or

  • Click the Install button on the web page.

Step 5

license install stored-location-url

Example:


Device# license install tftp://infra-sun/<user>/license/5400/38a.lic

Installs the license.

  • Accept the end-user license agreement if prompted.

Step 6

configure terminal

Example:


Device# configure terminal

Enters the global configuration mode.

Step 7

license boot level {metroaggrservices}

Example:


Device(config)# license boot level metroaggrservices

Activates the metroaggrservices license on the device upon the next reload.

Step 8

write memory

Example:


Device# write memory

Saves the running configuration to NVRAM.

Step 9

reload

Example:


Device# reload

(Optional) Restarts the device to enable the new feature set.

Note

 

A reload is not required when moving from an evaluation license to a permanent license of the same license level.

Managing Licenses by Using Software Activation Commands

Adding a Comment to a License File

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

license comment add feature-name comment [switch switch-num]

Example:

Device# license comment add gsmamrnb-codec-pack “Use this permanent license”

Adds or deletes information about a specific license.

  • (Only on Cisco Catalyst 3750-E switch platforms) If a switch number is specified, this command is executed on the specified switch.

  • When the license is present in license storage and multiple license lines are stored, you are prompted to select a license line. To select the license, type the number at the Select Index to Add Comment prompt.

Step 3

show license file [switch switch-num]

Example:

Device# show license file

Displays comments added to a Cisco software license file.

  • If the device is a switch, this command obtains statistics from the specified switch.

Saving All Licenses to a Specified Storage Area

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

license save file-sys://lic-location [switch switch-num]

Example:

Device# license save flash:all_licenses.lic

Saves copies of all licenses in a device and stores them in a format required by the command in the specified storage location. Saved licenses are restored by using the license install command.

  • lic-location : The license storage location can be a directory or a URL that points to a file system. Use the ? command to see the storage locations supported by your device.

  • (Optional) switch switch-num : sends this request to a specific switch in a switch stack.

Saving License Credential Information Associated with a Device to a Specified Storage Area

Before you begin

Before you can start the rehost or resend process, a device credential is required. Cisco software licensing requires that the license files generated by the Cisco back-end licensing system for its devices be secure and tamper-resistant. Security features are in place to authenticate a license by means of encrypted license credentials. If it becomes necessary to transfer a license from one device to another (which is called rehosting), a permission ticket is required. To generate the permission ticket, the Cisco back-end licensing system requires the device credential information.

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

license save credential file-sys://lic-location [switch switch-num]

Example:

Device# license save credential flash:cred.lic

Saves credential information associated with a device to a specified URL.

  • lic-location : The license storage location can be a directory or a URL that points to a file system. Use the ? command to see the storage locations supported by your device.

  • (Optional)switch switch-num : sends this request to a specific switch in a switch stack.

Displaying All Licenses in a Device

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

show license all

Example:

Device# show license all

Displays information about all licenses in the device.

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

show license detail [feature-name]

Example:

Device# show license detail

Displays detailed information about all licensed features or the specified licensed feature.

Displaying Licensed Feature Sets Available in an Image

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

show license feature

Example:

Device# show license feature

Displays a list of licensed features available in an image.

Removing Licenses by Using Software Activation Commands

Removing a License Entry from a Permanent License File


Note

  • The license clear command lists all licenses, but some licenses, such as built-in licenses, cannot be cleared.

  • Only licenses that have been added by using the license install command are removed. Evaluation licenses are not removed.

  • If a license is not in use, the license clear command displays all the licenses related to this feature and prompts you to make a selection. Different prompts are displayed, depending upon whether single or multiple licenses are available in the device. The selected licenses are removed from the device.

  • If a license is in use, the license clear command might fail. However, depending on the application policy using the license, some licenses might be cleared.

  • When a switch is specified, the license clear command is issued on that switch. When a mixed stack platform is used, the primary switch must have installed the minimum licensing features required to support the licensing operations of the secondary switches. When this command is issued from a primary switch, the switch number is required to clear a license on that switch.

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

license clear feature-name [switch switch-num]

Example:

Device# license clear gsmamrnb-codec-pack

Removes a license entry from license storage once it has been verified that the license line is valid and was explicitly installed.

  • The optional switch switch-num keyword and argument send this request to a specific switch in a switch stack.

  • You must select the index number of the license to clear. Enter the number at the Select Index to Clear prompt.

Step 3

show license detail

Example:

Device# show license detail

Verifies that the license has been cleared.

Rehosting (Revoking and Transferring) a License

Before you begin

Read and understand the license transfer between devices concepts in the “Cisco IOS Software Activation Conceptual Overview” module.

Cisco software licensing requires that the license files generated by the Cisco back-end licensing system for its devices be secure and tamper-resistant. Security features are in place to authenticate a license by means of encrypted license credentials. Rehosting requires a permission ticket. To generate the permission ticket, the Cisco back-end licensing system requires the device credential information. Use the license save credential command to save device credential information to a specified file system.

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

license revoke revoke permission-file-url output-rehost-ticket-url

Example:

Device# license revoke tftp://infra-sun/ramanp/pt.lic flash:rt.lic

Revokes and transfers a license by using the permission ticket provided by the Cisco back-end licensing system. It removes the original, permanent license from the device and provides a license for the new device.

  • An end-user license agreement is displayed for all grace-period licenses in the permission ticket.

  • You must read and accept the agreement. If you do not accept the agreement, the rehost operation stops.

Troubleshooting License Operations by Using Software Activation Commands

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:


Device> enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

show license file [switch switch-num]

Example:


Device# show license file

Displays license entries and license details stored in a Cisco software license file. If the device is a switch, this command obtains statistics from the specified switch.

Step 3

show license statistics

Example:


Device# show license statistics

Displays license statistics information. The display includes relevant statistics for error counts and is useful for troubleshooting licensing-related problems.

Step 4

show license status [switch switch-num]

Example:


Device# show license status

Displays the status of licenses in the system. If the device is a switch, this command obtains status from the specified switch.

Step 5

debug license {all | core | errors | events}

Example:


Device# debug license errors

Enables controlled software license debugging activity on a device.

Step 6

no debug license {all | core | errors | events}

Example:


Device# no debug license errors

Disables license debugging activity on a device.

Configuring Examples for Software Licensing

Example: Installing and Upgrading Licenses

The following example shows how to use the license install command to install a license saved in TFTP on the device. The display is truncated for easier readability:
