Chapter 3 Managing ACE Software Licenses
Copying a License File to the ACE
Copying a License File to the ACE
When you receive the software license key e-mail from Cisco Systems, you must
copy the attached license file to a network server. Then use the copy command in
Exec mode from the Admin context to copy the file from the network server to
disk0: on the ACE. For detailed information on the copying files from a remote
server, see Chapter 4, Managing the ACE Software.
For example, the syntax of the copy tftp command is:
copy tftp:[//server[/path/][/filename]] disk0:[path/]filename
The arguments are:
• [//server[/path/][/filename]]—The path to the network server. This path is
optional because the ACE prompts you for this information if you omit it.
• disk0:[path/]filename—Specifies that the file destination is the disk0:
directory of the current context and the filename. If you do not provide the
optional path, the ACE copies the file to the root directory on the disk0: file
system.
For example, to copy the ACE-AP-VIRT-020.lic license file from the license
directory on the track network server to the root directory on disk0:, enter:
host1/Admin# copy tftp://track/license/ACE-AP-VIRT-020.lic disk0:
If the license is a demo or permanent license for a new or upgrade installation, see
the “Installing a New or Upgrade License File” section.
If the license is a permanent license replacing a demo license, see the “Replacing
a Demo License with a Permanent License” section.
