Hi ,
I am currently having an issue with 9300 Stack of switches running IOSXE Amsterdam.
I have followed the procedure on cisco's website "System Management Configuration Guide, Cisco IOS XE Amsterdam 17.3.x (Catalyst 9300 Switches) - Configuring Smart Licensing [Support] - Cisco"
After changing the license boot level using "license boot level network-essentials addon dna-essential"
I can see that the switch has taken the command after the reboot I get the following output when running "sh ver"
Technology Package License Information:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Technology-package Technology-package
Current Type Next reboot
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
network-essentials Smart License network-essentials
dna-essentials Subscription Smart License dna-essentials
However when going to the next level to apply "license smart register idtoken" the switch does not even show the option for register when I try and run "license smart ?

Just to highlight this is IOSXE 17.03.04 . is the update process on it any different ?

Hello,
post the full running configuration of the 9300. Is your call home fully working ?
09-28-2021 12:50 AM
Which sections of the config are you interested in as I am not allowed to paste the full thing here for confidentiality.
I forgot to mention that this is IOSXE 17.03.04 . is the process any different on the newer versions ?
I have seen few posts about using CSLU but no official cisco guide on that.
Thanks

Hello,
Starting from IOS-XE 17.3.2, the smart licensing imposed is SLUP (Smart Licensing Using Policy), where there is no more the concept of registering the device.
For more information and examples of different methods of configuration of SLUP, you can check the documentation below:
Smart Licensing using Policy on Catalyst Switching Platforms
Thank you.
