• You must enable the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
server depending on which protocol you use to download the license file to the device.
• Ensure that you have the correct license file with the base MAC address of the switch on which
you need to install the license. Otherwise, the system does not unblock the licensed features.
About this task
Install a license file on the switch to enable licensed features.
Note:
You can enable FTP or TFTP in the boot config flags and then initiate an FTP or a TFTP
session from your workstation to put the file on the server running on the switch.
Procedure
1. From a remote station, or PC, use FTP or TFTP to download the license file to the device,
and store the license file in the /intflash directory.
2. Enter Global Configuration mode:
enable
configure terminal
3. To load the license file, execute the following command:
load-license
Important:
If the loading fails, or if the switch restarts and cannot locate a license file in the specified
location, the switch cannot unlock the licensed features and reverts to base functionality.
Important:
The license filename stored on a device must meet the following requirements:
• Maximum of 63 alphanumeric characters
• No spaces or special characters allowed
• Underscore (_) is allowed
• The file extension ".xml" is required
If more than one valid .xml license file exists in the /intflash/ directory, the switch uses
the license with the highest capability.
Example
Use FTP to transfer a license file from a PC to the internal flash on the device:
C:\Users\jsmith>ftp 192.0.2.16
Connected to 192.0.2.16 (192.0.2.16).
220 FTP server ready
Name (192.0.2.16:(none)): rwa
331 Password required
Password:
