Is the "Data" License required for devices responding to IP SLA commands

[nicholas_ong]

Hi,

This question relates to the 15.X IOS Licensing scheme.

We have a dedicated router that we use in the hub site for setting up IP SLA probes.

Does anyone know if we need purchase the "Data" license for remote site device responding to the probes?

From my point of view, I am thinking that that is not required.  Any confirmation of that will be appreciated.

Cheers.

IP SLA requires a license greater than IP BASE.  So you will need at least a DATA license to be able to create collectors.  In the future, you can use the IOS Feature Navigator to see what features are supported in what versions of IOS (and with what licenses).

Hi Joseph,

I understand the point with regards to having the "data" license to create collectors.

What I am not certain is whether the responding devices will also need to have the "data" license.

Warmest Regards.

No, responder devices only require IP BASE.
