Licensing this Software Version on a
Control Card for an SBx8100 Series Switch
Release licenses are applied with the license certificate command, then validated with
the show license or show license brief commands. Follow these steps:
■ Obtain the MAC address for a control card
■ Obtain a release license for a control card
■ Apply a release license on a control card
■ Confirm release license application
If your control card is in a stacked chassis, you do not need to perform these steps on each
chassis in the stack, only on the stack master.
If your license certificate contains release licenses for each control card present in a
stacked chassis, entering the license certificate command on the stack master will
automatically apply the release licenses to all the control cards within the stack.
Step 1: Obtain the MAC address for a control card
A release license is tied to the control card MAC address in a chassis.
Chassis may have several MAC addresses. Use the show system mac license command to
show the control card MAC address for release licensing. Note the MAC addresses for each
control card in the chassis. The chassis MAC address is not used for release licensing. Use
the card MAC address for release licensing.
Step 2: Obtain a release license for a control card
Contact your authorized Allied Telesis support center to obtain a release license.
Step 3: Apply a release license on a control card
Use the license certificate command to apply a release license to each control card
installed in your chassis or stack.
Note the license certificate file can be stored on internal flash memory, a USB drive, or on a
TFTP server accessible by SCP or accessible by HTTP protocols.
