Prerequisites for Port Upgrade Licensing and Bulk Port Licensing

Before activating the Port Upgrade and Bulk Port license, you must obtain and install the license. For information on obtaining and installing licenses, see Configuring the Cisco IOS Software Activation Feature.

Ports must be enabled to Admin Up mode after installing the license on the Cisco router to activate the license in Use state.

Effective from the Cisco IOS XE 3.18 release, the License Feature Port command is not supported.

Restrictions for Port Upgrade Licensing and Bulk Port Licensing


Note


Port Upgrade Licensing is applicable for both 1G and 10G ports.


  • If 10G license is installed and activated for a dual rate port and an SFP is inserted in that port, the interface will come up in 1G mode.

  • If 10G license is installed and activated for a dual rate port and an SFP+ is inserted in that port, the interface will come up in 10G mode.

  • If 10G license is not installed for particular port and SFP is inserted, the interface will come up in 1G mode.

  • If sufficient 10G licenses or Bulk Licenses are not available or not activated for a port and an SFP+ is inserted, the 10G mode is not enabled. The interface will be in 'link down state' and the following system warning message will be generated. Warning: SFP+ inserted at port X tengig license not in use

  • If an activated 10G license is uninstalled or deactivated for a particular port with SFP+, the interface is initialized to 1G mode and 10G interfaces will be in administratively down state.

  • If optics is swapped from 1G to 10G or vice versa in dual-rate ports, execute the write mem command before installing Bulk or Port upgrade licenses.

  • Starting with Cisco IOS XE Amsterdam 17.3.1, if Smart Licensing is enabled, bulk port license is not requested explicitly from the Smart Licensing server by IOS XE software. Instead, equivalent Port Upgrade Licenses are consumed.

Information about Port Upgrade and Bulk Port Licensing


Note


Before clearing the license, all corresponding ports must be in admin down (disabled) mode.


Bulk licenses have the highest priority in all Cisco ASR 920 router models, followed by the 12x1G licenses (applicable only on the Cisco ASR-920-24SZ-xx models), and then the 1G licenses.

When a 6x1G license is enabled, activating the 12x1G releases the 6x1G license. However, if the 12x1G license is activated, enabling 6x1G license causes no change, that is, the 6x1G license is rejected.

Similarly, when any type of license is in use and a bulk license is activated, all licenses are released and only the bulk license is activated. On the other hand, if a bulk license is in use, all other license configurations are rejected.

Port Upgrade License

Port upgrade license is available in pay-as-you-grow model. Few ports in the router are enabled by default. However, you must purchase the licenses to enable other ports.

  • 1 GigabitEthernet Upgrade License (L-ASR920-1G-6)—1G ports are bundled as a group of six ports. You must purchase one license bundle to enable six 1G ports.

  • 10 GigabitEthernet Upgrade License (L-ASR920-10G-2)—10G ports are bundled as a group of two ports. You must purchase one license bundle to enable two 10G ports.

The Cisco ASR 920 Series routers support dual rate 10G ports. Initially all the 10G ports operate in 1G mode. You must purchase 10G Upgrade license to operate in 10G mode.

With License: After you install and activate the license, the remaining two SFP+ ports operate in 10G mode.

Bulk Port License

Bulk port licensing allows you to enable all the ports with a single license. When Bulk port license is activated, even while the 1 GigabitEthernet or 10 GigabitEthernet Upgrade Licenses are in use, there is no impact on the corresponding interfaces. The existing 1 GigabitEthernet or 10 GigabitEthernet Upgrade Licenses are released.


Note


Bulk port licensing is not supported on the Cisco ASR-920-12SZ-A/D routers.



Note


Starting with Cisco IOS XE Amsterdam 17.3.1, if Smart Licensing is enabled, bulk port license is not requested explicitly from the Smart Licensing server by IOS XE software. Instead, equivalent Port Upgrade Licenses are consumed.


  • Bulk port license for enabling all licensed ports on ASR-920-12CZ models

    • ASR920-12G-2-10G—Enables six 1G combo ports and upgrades two 10G SFP+ ports to operate in 10G mode.
