hello i have the following switch

NAME: "Chassis", DESCR: "Nexus 3548 Chassis"
PID: N3K-C3548P-10GX , VID: V01 , SN: ######

 

How do i check if I have licensing for ALL ports on this unit?

Is it common for a switch to only have licensing only some of its ports and not all of them?

Thx.

sorry i don't understand what you are telling me

even though you buy 3548 device there there is 2 different license one is 24 port enable license and 48 port enable licesne. so 3548 with 24 port license will allow only first 24 ports.

If you try 

show license usage

 You should be able to see the license installed.  

Is it common for a switch to only have licensing only some of its ports and not all of them?

No, that is not common. Usually, out of the box, all ports are enabled and the license is used mainly for feature sets.
