ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide

Once you enable the license (or if you do not use the correct key, attempt to downgrade the license, or
already installed the license) you see one of the following error messages:
Enabled license successfully.
Error: Unable to set license using supplied key.
Error: Unable to set license - downgrade of licenses is not supported.
Error: Unable to set license - license is already enabled.
Once installed (or enabled), the license goes with the switch chassis itself (not with the MSM module on
modular switches). The license information is stored in EEPROM and persists through reboots, software
upgrades, power outages, and reconfigurations.
If you attempt to execute a command and you do not either have the required license or have reached
the limits defined by the current license level, the system returns one of the following messages:
Error: This command cannot be executed at the current license level.
Error: You have reached the maximum limit for this feature at this license level.
To view the type of license you are currently running on the switch, use the
show licenses
command.
The license key number is not displayed, but the type of license is displayed in the
show licenses
output.
Example
The following command enables a license on the switch:
enable license 2d5e-0e84-e87d-c3fe-bfff
