When the software version is upgraded to one that supports Smart Licensing Using Policy, all licenses are
displayed as IN USE and the Cisco default policy is applied on the product instance. If any add-on licenses
are used, the Cisco default policy requires usage reporting in 90 days. Since all licenses on Cisco Catalyst
Access, Core, and Aggregation Switches are unenforced, (enforcement type), no functionality is lost.
