Enabling Special Feature Licences
You must enable the special feature licence you have purchased before you can
use the licenced features. You will need the password provided by your
authorised distributor or reseller. The advanced upgrade licence and password
are different from the standard software release licence and password. The
licence cannot be transferred from one switch to another.
For software features that require a special feature licence see “Special Feature
Licences” on page 11.
You must order passwords for special feature licences from your authorised distributor
or reseller. You must specify the special feature licence bundle and the serial number(s)
of the switch(s) on which the special feature licences are to be enabled.
The password for a special feature licence is a string of at least 16 hexadecimal
characters. This password encodes the special feature, or features, covered by
the license, and the switch serial number. The password information is stored
in the router’s FLASH memory.
To enable or disable a special feature licence, enter the commands:
ENABLE FEATURE=feature PASSWORD=password
DISABLE FEATURE=feature
To list the current special feature licences, enter the command:
SHOW FEATURE[={featurename|index}]
Setting System Parameters
You can set some general system parameters to ensure the router’s
compatibility with the public network, and to aid network administration.
System name, location and contact parameters can help a remote network
administrator identify the switch. By convention the system name is the full
domain name. Set the name and location of the switch, for example:
SET SYSTEM NAME=nd1.co.nz
SET SYSTEM LOCATION=”Head Office, 3rd floor east”
and a contact name and phone number for the network administrator
responsible for the switch, for example:
SET SYSTEM CONTACT=”Anna Brown 03-456 789”
The name, location, and contact are strings 1 to 80 characters in length of any
printable character. If the string includes spaces enclose it in double quotes.
Set the router’s real time clock to the current local time in 24 hour notation
(hh:mm:ss), and to the current date (dd-mmm-yy, or dd-mmm-yyyy), for
example:
SET TIME=14:50:00
SET DATE=29-JAN-02 or
SET DATE=29-JAN-2003
