Getting Software Licenses for Cisco VG310 and
Cisco VG320 Voice Gateways
The Cisco VG310 and Cisco VG320 come with an evaluation license, also known as a temporary license,
for most packages and features supported on the voice gateway. To try a new software package or feature,
activate the evaluation license for that package or feature. The licensing provisions provided by the licensing
package offer greater flexibility to deploy new features while also improving visibility and management of
existing licenses on the voice gateways in the network.
When you order a new Cisco VG310 or a Cisco VG320, it is shipped with the software image and the
corresponding permanent licenses preinstalled for the packages and features that you specified. The software
does not need to be activated or registered before use.
Use the Cisco management application such as Cisco License Manager (CLM) to determine the licenses
activated on your system. CLM is a free software application available at:
