I am getting the below error on my new switch though I can’t find out A. why I am getting the error and obviously B. how to resolve said error as I need to ensure I am operating under the letter of the law and compliance. The switch is a WS-C3750X-48T-S running C3750E-IPBASEK9-M, per my research IP base is the correct IOS for a T-S switch, the label on the outside of the switch matches the show ver (WS-C3750X-48T-S) so I know that IPBase is the right IOS for the hardware. Could it be that I don’t have the license file installed? Below is what I get when I do a show license. Lastly is there a place that I can find what IOS ships default with what switches, not version but type like c3750e-ipbasek9-mz.150-1.SE vs c3750e-ipbase-mz.150-1.SE
