Cisco ISR 4461 Smart Licensing

[TW80CJ5]

Hello All,

I am having trouble getting my smart licensing to work on my Cisco Router. I am testing my configuration in my lab. We have a Cisco Satellite Server set up and I can ping from the Router to the Satellite Server. 

I keep getting "Failure Reason: Fail to send out Call Home HTTP message."

Here is my configuration:

XXX-RTR#sh call-home profile XXXX_SMART_LICENSE_SERVER

Profile Name: XXXX_SMART_LICENSE_SERVER
Profile status: ACTIVE
Profile mode: Full Reporting
Reporting Data: Smart Call Home

try the solution from this post  -> 

ip http client source-interface Ethernet 0/0.10

(modify four your interface) also you may need to specify a VRF

Pieterh...I do not have the option to specify a vrf. I am trying to use the following: 

ip http client source-interface loopback15

Is there a way I can test that this resovled the issue? To force the registration traffic from the router to the server.

of course you can, the current output from "show license status" displays:
     Registration:
     Status: UNREGISTERED - REGISTRATION FAILED
this should change to REGISTERED when registration with the sattelite is complete

the output also shows:

    License Authorization:
    Status: EVAL MODE

this should change to COMPLIANT when communication of the sattelite to Cisco smart licensing is synchronized and the license is registered to your smart account
