Hi all,
I need some help and clarification about upgrading license from evaluation to Advamced Enterprise Service on Cisco ISR 3925.
The thing i have done is for testingt some feature i have activated the Evaluation license by enabling datak9 feature as below.
RTR(config)#license accept end user agreement
RTR(config)#license boot module c3900 technology-package datak9
And it was working fine and the evaluation periode is for 8 weeks
Actually we get the new license for Advanced enterprise L-SL-39-SEC-k9 from CISCo Licensing and applied it following the instruction from Cisco licensing tha i will show below.
But i'm wondering that when i checked the license information i'm still are in EVALUATION license.
Here are the command i did to apply the new license file:
My Router version is below:
Cisco IOS Software, C3900 Software (C3900-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 15.4(3)M2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)
RTR#copy tftp flash:
RTR#license install flash:sec-k9_license.lic
RTR(config)#license boot module technology-package disable datak9
RTR# reload
After reloading the the router and checking the License feature i'm still noticing that the license information is still in Evaluation not permanent.
RTR#show license feature

Hi Raitsarevo,
Your securityk9 license shows that " License State: Active, In Use" means you have activated it successfully. Evaluation status would become permanent after the grace period of the Eval license
You could check the duration, if you run the following show command
show license detail securityk9
Please follow these references if you need any more information

Hi Prabath,
Thank you for the replay, you are effectively right because after applying the datak9 and uck9 that we have purchased they become permanent now, see the show license output command below:
Technology Package License Information for Module:'c3900'
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Technology Technology-package Technology-package
Current Type Next reboot
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ipbase ipbasek9 Permanent ipbasek9
security securityk9 Permanent securityk9
uc uck9 Permanent uck9
data datak9 Permanent datak9
NtwkEss None None None
CollabPro None None None
I wonder why the Evaluation is still YES in the SHOW LICENSE FEATURE command below.
Feature name Enforcement Evaluation Subscription Enabled RightToUse
ipbasek9 no no no yes no
securityk9 yes yes no yes yes
uck9 yes yes no yes yes
datak9 yes yes no yes yes
