Clearing, Showing, and Applying Licenses
4-2 Activating Licensed Features
2. Optionally, note the serial numbers of the switches in the stack. You can use the show system
hardware command (page 3-8) to display the switch serial numbers.
3. Enable the licenses on the stack members first, before enabling the master unit, using the set
license command (page 4-3). For example:
C3(rw)->set license INCREMENT advrouter 2006.0127 27-jan-2011 0123456789AB
0123456789AB
4. Enable the license on the switch master unit last, using the set license command.
Adding a New Member to a Licensed Stack
When a Enterasys C3 switch without a license is added to a stack that has licensing enabled, the
ports on the new switch will not pass traffic until a license has been applied to the new switch. To
add a new member to a licensed stack:
1. Obtain a license for the new switch from the Enterasys Customer Portal.
2. Add the new unit to the stack, following the procedure in “Adding a New Unit to an Existing
Stack” on page 2-3.
3. Use the set license command to install and activate the new switch’s license. The new switch
will then join the stack and its ports will be attached.
Alternatively, you can install and activate the new switch’s license first, before adding the switch
to the stack.
Clearing, Showing, and Applying Licenses
Licenses can be displayed, applied, and cleared only with the license commands described in this
chapter. General configuration commands such as show config or clear config do not apply to
licenses.
Every license is associated with a specific hardware platform, based on the serial number of the
hardware platform. If you need to move a license from one hardware platform to another, you
must contact Enterasys Customer Support to arrange for re-hosting of the license.
Commands
Note: Since license keys are applied to the correct stack member switch automatically, based on
the switch serial number that is part of the license string, you should know the serial numbers of the
switches in order to enable the licenses of the member switches first, before the master unit.
