Catalyst 9300 Switches Smart licensing within the DNA License Manager

[OJ_Magellan]

 Hi,

I'm trying to register the switches on the DNAC through the License Manager, yet I failed due to the warning provided in the screenshot " Device software version is greater than or equal to 17.3.2" . What should I do now? Definitly not role backup to previous software version right?

Regards,

OJ

Hi OJ,

do you have access to this presentation (P. 55)? https://salesconnect.cisco.com/#/content-detail/aced5aa4-8c6f-4ef6-8250-9d06ebd9a73b

As Smart Licensing changed from 17.3.2/17.4.1 on. 

Havn't tried it yet but this came to my mind.

Hi Benjamin,

I do, I am aware of the Info regarding licensing through CSLU, however they seem to talk about a non SDA fabric. In SDA Fabric we have the DNAC License Manager, which should be perfoming similar tasks to CSLU.

My question is how to perform this task using DNAC, since the nodes are DNAC managed?  License Manager and CSLU integration? did DNAC License Manager become obsolete?

To use DNAC as CSLU is required version  2.2.1.0 that is not available yet.

Hi Benjamin,

Do you happen to have the updated link?  And was this issue resolved already?  We recently upgraded to 2.1.2.7 and not really keen as of now on doing another upgrade.
