grace-period license for a feature. You must accept the End User License Agreement (EULA) before
using this license.

You must accept the EULA as part of the installation of this license.

Permanent License

Permanent licenses are node-locked licenses with no associated usage period. These licenses are issued
through the Cisco licensing portal. You must accept the EULA as part of the installation of this license.
