Activate and verify the license as follows:
a. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
b. Activate the license using the

licenseAdd

command:

switch:admin> licenseaddkey

The license key is case-sensitive and must be entered exactly as given. The quotation marks

are optional.
For the Core Switch 2/64, SAN Director 2/128, and 4/256 SAN Director, licenses are effective

on both CP blades and on all logical switches, but are valid only when the CP blade is inserted

into a chassis that has an appropriate license ID stored in the World Wide Name (WWN) card. If

a CP is moved from one chassis to another, the license works in the new chassis only if the WWN

card is the same in the new chassis. Otherwise, a new license key is generated.
For example, if you swap one CP blade at a time, or replace a single CP blade, the existing CP

blade (the active CP blade) propagates the licenses to the new CP blade.
If you move a standby CP from one chassis to another, the active CP propagates its configuration

(including license keys).

c. Verify that the license was added by issuing the

licenseShow

command.

The licensed features currently installed on the switch are listed. If the feature is not listed, reissue

the

licenseAdd

command.

d. Some features may require additional configuration, or you might need to disable and reenable

the switch to make them operational; see the feature documentation for details. For example:

switch:admin> licenseshow
