Port Based License

When a port based license is not present, ports 4 to 7 are enabled. Ports 0 to 3, and ports 8 to 11 are disabled. This is the expected behavior. Interfaces that are disabled are in the administrative down state.

Example: When Port Based License is not Installed

The following error message appears when the port based license is not installed and you use the no shutdown command on the interface:

Router# show ip interface brief
