This is often asked if you had searched.

You must accept that. There is no license to upload.

Hi,

You need to activate the license to use the CME feature:

Activating an Evaluation License

Activating CME-SRST Feature License

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/access/sw_activation/SA_on_ISR.html#wp1155517

Summary:

1.

router#configure terminal

router(config)#license boot module c3900 technology-package uck9

% use 'write' command to make license boot config take effect on next boot

router(config)#end

router#wr

router#reload

2.

router(config)#license accept end user agreement

ACCEPT? [yes/no]: yes

router(config)# end

router#wr

router#reload

Jorge, step 1 link above is about activating UC evaluation license.

That is not applicable to the OP question, first because he may have a permanent UC license, and any case it is activated already, otherwise he would not be able to configure telephony-service at all.

Hi Paolo,

Yes, the procedure is for activating Evaluation Licenses as it says, however if you look at the Note, you'll find why I linked that procedure:

Activating an Evaluation License


Note Starting  with Cisco IOS Releases 15.0(1)M6, 15.1(1)T4, 15.1(2)T4, 15.1(3)T2, and  15.1(4)M, Evaluation licenses are replaced with Evaluation Right To Use  licenses. Evaluation Right to Use licenses automatically become Right  to Use licenses after the initial evaluation period. Follow the steps  detailed in this section to activate an Evaluation Right to Use license.


Actually that procedure is valid for Rigth To Use Licenses, and UCK9 is one of those:

Evaluation and Right to Use Licenses

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/access/sw_activation/SA_on_ISR.html#wp1151410

I just taught that could be important to mention this.

Please advice...

Read post by Jorge above.

My question is very simple . how i can verify that i have permanent liecense in the router or do i need to purchase license.

Hi,

To be clear:

-After activating the UCK9 and Accepting the EULA, License will show as “Evaluation” time of 8 weeks

-When this time expires, it will become EvalRightToUsefor 12 years, that is the platform estimated life time

So you just have to wait until this "Evaluation" time expires to see how the license change to 12 years.

Also, please make sure to read carefully the links; to better understand the new Cisco Licensing Method on IOS devices.
