If you enable Enterprise license, this license should enable MPLS/VRF/VRF-Lite.

Dear leolaohoo,

Hello. Thank you for you advise.

It is case of IOS 12.x,isn't it?

My case is IOS 15.x.

In that case, Can I enable VRF-Lite feature by DATA license ?

regards,

takuro

Whether you are running 12.X or 15.X doesn't make a difference.

Post the output to the command "sh license".

Dear leolaohoo,

My explanation was not enough, I'm afraid.

I'm going to buy the Cisco 3945E.

Requirement are below:

- Need to run VRF-Lite

- IOS is 15.4

the rest details are omitted.

Based on your advice, I checked a VRF-Lite at CCO.

To run VRF-Lite, It is needed a DATA license.

Is it correct ?

Please advice to me when my idea is wrong.

regards,

takuro

As per the following article (right at the bottom), you only need IP Base for Multi-VRF support.

Extract from article:

Table 3. Minimum Required Cisco IOS Feature Set

Platform	Multi-VRF	MPLS Label Switching
Cisco 3900 Series	IP Base	Data license
