Hi,    I recently got an upgrade for the rack - a brand new second hand :D C1-CISCO4331/K9 . Now the show inventory of the device indicates that it's a normal CISCO4331/K9, but when I checked if it's covered by a warranty or a contract, the Cisco SERIAL Number Checker told me that it's actually a C1-CISCO4331/K9 . My company is not affiliated in any way with the Cisco One program. I need to license this device, so it would have Security Features. The license is quite expensive and I wouldn't want to waste it on a device that can't be licenses outside the Cisco One Program.  So my question is : Can I license this device with the normal procedure like other ISR4331s . And are the Cisco One program devices different in any way ( hardware-wise,software-wise,feature-wise or license-wise ) from the bundled Cisco devices. Thanks in advance!  ... View more

Hi, I've inherited some cisco2951 and cisco2911 routers with SM-ES3G-16-P installed. And I have noticed something worrisome - the switches are indicating missing licenses.  License Level: ipbase License Type: Default. No valid license found. Next reload license Level: ipbase cisco SM-ES3G-16-P (PowerPC405) processor with 131072K bytes of memory. Processor board ID FOC15060Q3M Last reset from power-on 1 Virtual Ethernet interface 18 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces The password-recovery mechanism is enabled. This is the software version the switches are running :  Cisco IOS Software, C3560E Software (C3560E-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 12.2(52)EX1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) It's rather old and I'm planning an upgrade to 15.2 but the thing with the license sounds troubling.  Is there a way to fix it ? What kind of license do I need in order to use ipbase features ?  Thanks. ... View more
