Getting Software Licenses for the Router

The Integrated Services Router Generation 2 (ISR G2) platforms offer a new Universal

Cisco Internet Operating System (IOS) software image. The Universal image and its licensing provisions provide greater flexibility to deploy new features while also improving visibility and management of existing licenses on routers in the network.

When you order a new ISR G2, it is shipped with the software image and the corresponding permanent licenses for the packages and features that you specified, preinstalled. The software does not need to be activated or registered prior to use.

Use the Cisco management application such as Cisco License Manager (CLM), or use the Cisco IOS command show license feature to determine the licenses activated on your system.

The router comes with an evaluation license, also known as a temporary license, for most packages and features supported on the router. To try a new software package or feature, activate the evaluation license for that package or feature.
