Re: Converting 3650 LanBase to IP services

ruch · ‎03-01-2023

Hi,

We have C3650-24TS-L switch. We need to convert it to C3650-24TS-E for a requirement. Would it be possible. If so can someone walk me through the process

Thanks

- Probably parts of this article apply to your case too : https://blog.router-switch.com/2016/10/how-to-activateupgrade-c3850-ip-base-license-to-ip-services/

In addition to @marce1000's helpful reference, from your question, moving from -L (LAN Base) to -E (IP Services) is jumping past -S (IP Base). I believe you can do that directly, i.e. you may not need to apply the IP Base license although there may be an additional cost for such a license upgrade (accounting for not having the IP Base license) and I also believe you can upgrade from a -L (some Cisco switch models don't allow this).

Not without buying the license upgrade option.
