Hi all!
We started to use in production new NCS5504.
We have no any L3VPN installed because we don't use MPLS. We have only 2 VRF instances.
From this document https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/routers/network-convergence-system-5500-series/datasheet-c78-740765.html
I see that L3VPN license is needed when: Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instances greater than 8 per system. Up to 8 management VRFs are included with BASIC-LSR license
But I see countdown timer:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:NCS#sh license all
