Temporary licenses
18
Expired licenses
Once a temporary license has expired, you can view it through the licenseShow command. Expired
licenses have an output string of “License has expired”. RASlog warning messages are generated
every hour for licenses present in the database which have expired or are going to expire in the next
five days. An expired license may become unusable after a reboot, failover, firmware download, or a
port or switch disable or enable operation.
Removing an expired license
CAUTION
This procedure is disruptive to the switch.
Use the following procedure to remove an expired licence:
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the reboot command for the expiry to take affect.
Universal temporary licenses
Universal temporary license keys include a duration period. Once installed on a switch, an
expiration date is calculated and the duration is decremented until there is no remaining time, at
which point it is expired. Because of this, universal temporary licenses should not be installed on a
switch until you are ready to use or test the feature, so as not to unnecessarily consume a portion
of the temporary-use duration.
The expiration date is based on the system time at the installation of the license plus the number
of days for which the universal temporary license is valid. Universal temporary licenses cannot be
removed and reinstalled on the same switch.
Universal temporary licenses are always retained in the license database on the product even
though they can be explicitly deleted from any user interface.
Extending a universal temporary license
Extending a universal temporary license is done by adding a temporary license with an expiry date
after the universal temporary license expiry date, or by adding a permanent license. Re-applying an
existing universal temporary license is not allowed.
Universal temporary license shelf life
All universal temporary licenses are encoded with a “shelf life” expiration date. Once this date is
reached, the temporary licensed feature can no longer be used on the switch.
