C3750X ipbase to ipservice

[slyfox]

Hello,

Have stack with C3750X-24,C3750X-48 and C3750X-12s under ipbase.

What license part No I need to have ipservice ?

version change due to ebgp and ibgp functionality required

Hi,

see table-20 in the datasheet:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-3560-x-series-switches/data_sheet_c78-584733.html

I also recommend contacting your Cisco SE or the partner's SE before upgrading, as license upgrade to "IP services" can get complicated and can be expensive.

in a stack -  master switch only need ip service licenses ( to get more features), rest can be ip base license.

I also suggest good community document for your reference :

@balaji.bandi what if master breaks down? 

[Reza Sharifi]

I don't recommend upgrading the master only. If you do that and the master fails, you will have downtime and lose all your BGP, VRF, and any other feature that is enabled by IP services.  It will be a disaster when things break at 2:00 AM.

Sorry for the confusion here ....let me correct it here, i mean to master and slave have ipservice, and reset of member in stack

will be ip base.
