how to check license in FTD? only CLI

jona_board — Mon, 29 Apr 2019 20:47:22 GMT

hello,

Well I have FMC 4500 and FTD 2130, but I'm not really sure about license. You need to know my network doesn't have internet so the classic license is the option. I need to check to CLI if my FTD have license from factory or I need to install throught FMC.

example in switch #show license right-to-use

If you are managing the FTD with FMC, Then Use FMC for Licensing.

There is no equivalent right-to-use license in an FTD device. You need to either manage it with FMC or FDM. In both cases you can use a local satellite license server to check out licenses.

That satellite server does require periodic updates from the Internet to validate the licenses are allocated according to your entitlements.
