Hi Community,
Having issues installing a demo license for my CSR100v. I have already copied the license file to the VM, but can't install it, the command:
cme-01#license ?
smart Smart licensing
cme-01#license
I only have the option to do license smart....and that's not what i want since i created my .lic file and downloaded to my PC and then via copy TFTP i uploaded to the router vm. I'm a bit lost here.
I followed this guide:
Refer to Step 4 (license install stored-location-url)
Here's my version:
cme-01#show version
Cisco IOS XE Software, Version 16.10.01a
Cisco IOS Software [Gibraltar], Virtual XE Software (X86_64_LINUX_IOSD-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 16.10.1a, RELEASE
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
smart licensing disables software licensing. Disable smart licensing:
CSR1000v#conf t
CSR1000v(config)#no license smart enable
12-14-2018 11:01 PM
Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to work:
cme-01#configure t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
cme-01(config)#no license smart enable
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
cme-01(config)#no license smart ?
custom_id Set a customer defined id
privacy privacy related commands
reservation Enable or disable the license reservation feature
transport Select the type of message transport for Smart Agent
url Set the Smart Transport Primary and the Utility URL
utility Enable or disable usage reporting on the device

Hello,
try 'no service call-home' in global config mode first...

Looks like same thing, no way to run "license install" command
cme-01#configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. cme-01(config)#no service call-home
cme-01(config)#no license smart ? custom_id Set a customer defined id privacy privacy related commands reservation Enable or disable the license reservation feature transport Select the type of message transport for Smart Agent url Set the Smart Transport Primary and the Utility URL utility Enable or disable usage reporting on the device

Any ideas please?

Hello,
what happpens when you type 'license smart enable', reload the device, and then type 'no license smart enable' ?
12-17-2018 09:47 AM
There's no such command "license smart enable"
12-17-2018 10:07 AM
Hello,
what happens if you configure 'no license smart reservation' ?

Hello,
I just checked the release notes for Gibraltar 16.10. Only Smart Licensing is supported:
Release Gibraltar 16.10.1b supports Smart License as the only Licensing mode Refer Smart Licensing Guide for Access and Edge Routers for more details. A Smart Account is mandatory Use Device Led Conversion (DLC) to convert traditional licenses to Smart (DLC for CSR1000v will come in 17.1.1)

Hi Georg,
Version 17.1.1 is tied to smart ONLY, although gives you a chance to convert traditional to smart, if you DON'T want to have the smart license feature and want traditional then you will need to downgrade to 16.10.1a or earlier
Kind Regards Jon

I had a similar issue and I had to downgrade from isr4300-universalk9.17.03.05.SPA.bin to an older version and it worked.

So if one wants to evaluate APPX_5G or AX_5G on CSR1000V using the latest IOS-XE, we do what? Request/Ask Cisco reseller to issue an evaluation license to our SmartNet account?
