	the license is an evaluation license, this field will contain the expiration
	date of the license. If the license is a permanent license, this field will

Mode

Switch command, read‐write.

Usage

If multiple switches are used in a stack, an individual license is required for each stack member. Refer to “Licensing Procedure in a Stack Environment” on page 4‐1 for more information.

When activating licenses with this command, Enterasys Networks recommends that you copy and paste the entire license character string, rather than enter the text manually. If you enter the character string manually, ensure that you exactly match the capitalization of the character string sent to you.

Every license is associated with a specific hardware platform, based on the serial number of the hardware platform. If you need to move a license from one hardware platform to another, you must contact Enterasys Customer Support to arrange for re‐hosting of the license.

Example

This example shows how to activate a permanent license key on the switch with serial number 075103099041. In this example, the switch is a stand‐alone unit so its unit number is 1.
