Hi, Here is the steps to follow:

 

https://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/7.4/configuration/guides/system_management/config_system_management_chapter_011.html#d33637e24a1635

Installing a License (GUI)


Step 1   Choose Management > Software Activation > Commands to open the License Commands page.
Step 2   From the Action drop-down list, choose Install License. The Install License from a File section appears.
Step 3   In the File Name to Install text box, enter the path to the license (*.lic) on the TFTP server.
Step 4   Click Install License. A message appears to show whether the license was installed successfully. If the installation fails, the message provides the reason for the failure, such as the license is an existing license, the path was not found, the license does not belong to this device, you do not have correct permissions for the license, and so on.
Step 5   If the end-user license agreement (EULA) acceptance dialog box appears, read the agreement and click Accept to accept the terms of the agreement.
Note   

Typically, you are prompted to accept the EULA for evaluation, extension, and rehost licenses. The EULA is also required for permanent licenses, but it is accepted during license generation.

Step 6   Save a backup copy of all installed licenses as follows:
  1. From the Action drop-down list, choose Save License.
  2. In the File Name to Save text box, enter the path on the TFTP server where you want the licenses to be saved.
    Note   

    You cannot save evaluation licenses.

  3. Click Save Licenses.
Step 7   Reboot the controller.

Installing a License (CLI)


Step 1   Install a license on the controller by entering this command:

license install url

where url is tftp://server_ip/path/filename.

Note   

To remove a license from the controller, enter the license clear license_name command. For example, you might want to delete an expired evaluation license or any unused license. You cannot delete unexpired evaluation licenses, the permanent base image license, or licenses that are in use by the controller.

Step 2   If you are prompted to accept the end-user license agreement (EULA), read and accept the terms of the agreement.
Note   

Typically, you are prompted to accept the EULA for evaluation, extension, and rehost licenses. The EULA is also required for permanent licenses, but it is accepted during license generation.

Step 3   Add comments to a license or delete comments from a license by entering this command:

license comment {add | delete} license_name comment_string

Step 4   Save a backup copy of all installed licenses by entering this command:

license save url

where url is tftp://server_ip/path/filename.

Step 5   Reboot the controller by entering this command:

reset system.
