DETAILED STEPS
Purpose
Command or Action
Disables Cisco Smart Licensing on the device instance and switches to Cisco Software
Licensing (CSL) mode. Reboot the device for the change to take effect.
no license smart enable
Step 1
Note
: When you disable Smart Licensing, the Cisco Software License (CSL) and all licensing
calls pass through the Smart Agent. For the
no
case, if Smart Licensing is already registered,
the Smart Agent performs the
license smart deregister
operation that deactivates Smart
Licensing.
Restarts the Cisco CSR 1000v. This is required to complete the process of disabling the
Cisco Smart License.
reload
Step 2
License Out-of-Compliance Behavior
A successfully licensed Cisco CSR 1000v can receive an "out of compliance" syslog message during reload
or renewal/reauthorization of license from the Smart Licensing server if an attempt is made to contact the
Smart Licensing server for a license and the number of available licenses recorded on the Smart Licensing
account is exceeded. The "out of compliance" message may also occur as a result of the Cisco CSR 1000v
having been configured to have a higher performance level compared to the previously purchased feature set.
After the "out of compliance" message appears, the system continues to operate at the previously licensed
throughput rate.
License Behavior with no Connectivity to the Smart Licensing
Server
When a successfully licensed Cisco CSR 1000v is unable to contact the Smart Licensing server, during
reload/reauthorization/renewal of license, then the Cisco CSR 1000v continues to operate at the previously
licensed state.
License authorization expires if the CSSM satellite server has had no connectivity with the Smart Licensing
server for more than 90 days. The license then changes to a license authorization expired state and the Cisco
CSR 1000v continues to operate at the previously licensed state and runs in Feature Restricted mode.
The following example shows a typical license expiry message that appears on the console.
*Aug 4 08:02:19.056: %VXE_THROUGHPUT-6-CLI_RESTRICTED_LICENSE_EXPIRE: System is in
feature restricted mode due to license expire. Configuration CLIs have been blocked.
