Q. What types of licenses are available for the Cisco ISR G2?

A.• Permanent: A permanent license never expires. When a permanent license is installed on a system, it is good for that particular feature set for the life of the router, even across Cisco IOS Software releases. For example, when unified communication, security, or data license is installed on a system, the subsequent features for that license are activated even if the system is upgraded to a new Cisco IOS Software release. A permanent license is the most common license type used when you purchase a feature set for a device.

You don't copy the license. 

Send an email to the Cisco Licensing Team and they can generate a new license PAK very quickly.
