[MOHAN.RAJ1]

Hi Team

Kindly provide the show usage license detail command for Fabric Interconnect.

I tried Show License Usage but its not providing any output.

Thanks

From the main scope: `scope license`

Then, you have the commands below available. The one in bold is the one you asked about.

`show feature detail`

`show file detail`

`show usage detail`

`show download-task detail`

`show server-host-id`

Hi Dides

Thanks for providing the commands.

We can see as below output.Means out of 24 port presently 20 ports used ?

License instance: ETH_PORT_ACTIVATION_PKG
Scope: A
Default: 20
Total Quant: 24
Used Quant: 20
Subordinate Quant: 0
State: License Ok
Peer Count Comparison: Matching
Grace Used: 0

But still i have confuse, We are using 6248up and its having 48 port, so what happen for remaining port license details.Please provide brief .

Thanks in Advance

So you have 24 Ports Available for Use, but are only using 20. So you have an excess of 4. That isn't for the expansion module.

Are you using all 48 ports or only 20. So right now you have licenses for 24 ports, but are only using 20, so the other 28 ports are not being used. The other commands will give you the rest of the output and show you which ports are being used.

If these answered helped please mark the solution when acceptable and give rating.

Thanks!

Hi Dides

Thanks for explaining the details. Can you please tell for offline ports how can i check the license details.

[Qiese Dides]

Hi Mohan,

For example if you type;

Scope License

Scope Eth-server

Show Interface

This output will show you ports that are using a License and you can see if the status is UP or SFP Not Present Unknown. If you have for example a License Okay Column with a SFP Present Unknown that means that port is using a license but there is no SFP present therefore it is probably configured but is not using a license. It will not show you offline ports, since ports that are offline are not using any licensing.
