License Type: RightToUse 
Next reload license Level: adventerprise
.
.
.

Table 1. show version Command Output Description

When license is requested for OC3 SPA, any two ports are free to use and license is requested when the third port is unshut:

Unshut Port0-No license would be requested
Unshut Port2-No license would be requested
Unshut Port1-One unit of license would be requested
Unshut Port3-No additional license is required

Note

For OC12 SPA, if any one port is free to use, license is requested when 2nd port is unshut.

Unshut Port1-No license would be requested
Unshut Port0-One unit of license would be requested

When license is released for OC3 SPA, consider that all the ports are unshut (Only one unit of license is consumed)

When 2 ports are shut, one unit of license is released.

Shut Port0-No license would be released. Ports1, 2 and 3 are in unshut state and only onne unit of license is consumed.
Shut Port3-One license is released. Port 1 and Port 2 are in unshut state and no units of licenses are consumed.

Similarly, when license is released for OC12 SPA, consider that all the ports are unshut (Only one unit of license is consumed)

Note

When 1 port is shut, one unit of license is released.

Shut Port0-One license is released, Port1 is in unshut state and no units of license is consumed.

Port Licensing for the

Licensing

The has eight 1GE ports in Bay 0 and eight 10GE ports in Bay 1. By default, four ports in Bay 0 and four ports in Bay 1 can be enabled without a license (ports 0 through 3). The remaining ports can be enabled in pairs (ports 4 and 5, and ports 6 and 7) through licenses.


1	1GE ports 0–3 can be enabled by default.	4	10GE ports 0–3 can be enabled by default.
2	1GE ports 4 and 5 require a port license. Enabling either port will use one port license.	5	10GE ports 4 and 5 require a port license. Enabling either port will use one port license.
3	1GE ports 6 and 7 require a port license. Enabling either port will use one port license.	6	10GE ports 6 and 7 require a port license. Enabling either port will use one port license.

Enabling one of the ports in a port pair using the no shut command consumes one count of the license, and the In-use count increases by 1.

Disabling the ports in the port pair using the shut command releases one count of the license, and the In-use count decreases by 1.

An End-User License Agreement (EULA) is displayed for each port pair if there is no permanent license present to support these ports.

The image carries two 1GE and two 10GE port EvalRTU (Evaluation) licenses. If the EvalRTU license expires, it becomes a Right-To-Use (RTU) license.

Licensed ports in Bay 0 use a 1GE port license.
Licensed ports in Bay 1 use a 10GE port license.

For all possible port licensing scenarios, see Licensing Scenarios for Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router.

The following EvalRTU license example displays the EvalRTU licenses used on the 10GE ports. A Permanent license works similarly:

StoreIndex: 16  Feature: interface_10g                     Version: 1.0
        License Type: EvalRightToUse
        License State: Active, In Use
            Evaluation total period: 8  weeks 4  days 
            Evaluation period left: 8  weeks 3  days 
            Period used: 3  hours 13 minutes 
            Transition date: Aug 16 2013 19:05:26
        License Count: 0/0  (In-use/Violation)
        License Priority: Low

Licensing Scenarios for Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router

The following table provides all possible licensing scenarios for the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router.

Note

In the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router, Bay 0 can only support 1GE SFP and Bay 1 can only support 10GE SFP+ speed.

Table 4. Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router—BAY 0 (1GE Port)
Port 4 or Port 6	Port 5 or Port 7	License Consumption
SHUT	SHUT	No License
SHUT	NO_SHUT	1GE License
NO_SHUT	SHUT	1GE License
NO_SHUT	NO_SHUT	1GE License

Table 5. Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router—BAY 1 (10GE Port)
Port 4 or Port 6	Port 5 or Port 7	License Consumption
SHUT	SHUT	No License
SHUT	NO_SHUT	10GE License
NO_SHUT	SHUT	10GE License
NO_SHUT	NO_SHUT	10GE License

Evaluation License Features

The following are the features of the 1GE and 10GE Interface Evaluation license:

There is only one 60-Day Evaluation Period countdown timer for the 1GE port pairs and 10GE port pairs. The timer is initiated as soon as the first of the port pairs is enabled.
A EULA will be presented, and must be accepted, the first time you enable any of the ports in order to utilize the requested port.
When the 60-Day Evaluation Period expires, the license automatically changes to an RTU license. As with all other RTU licenses, there is no functionality disruption or accessibility concerns following this transition.
There can be only one active interface_1g license and one active interface_10g license. Either the Permanent License or the EvalRTU License can be Active, but not both.
As with past license implementations, the Permanent license is of higher precedence than the built-in EvalRTU license. However, when the Permanent license does not have enough port-count (that is, when the user requests both port pairs but the Permanent License only allows for one port pair), the license priority changes between the Permanent and Evaluation licenses. In this case, the Evaluation License becomes Active since it can accommodate both port pairs. The Permanent License will automatically become Active if and when its port-count meets the user’s desired configuration.

Configuring the Crypto Throughput Level

The field-upgradable crypto module has no default throughput. You can upgrade the throughput by applying a crypto throughput upgrade license.

The following two types of crypto throughput licenses are available on the and the :

Right-to-Use (RTU) license, which is honor-based
Permanent license

When you use a Permanent license for crypto-throughput and want to upgrade it, you must download the appropriate Permanent license to upgrade it .

When you have an RTU license, you do not need to download a separate license (for example, a Permanent license). The license is already provided with the Cisco IOS. Therefore, to upgrade the RTU license, all you need to do is configure the crypto to a higher-level license.

Note

To install permanent IPSec license, you do not have to use license install commands. License related for example show license feature and show license commands do not have any IPSec related references.

To determine the current throughput level of the crypto module, enter the show platform hardware crypto-throughput level command. The following example shows the output from this command before you apply a crypto throughput upgrade license:

Router# show platform hardware crypto-throughput level
*Jun 17 22:04:56.711: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
The current crypto throughput level is 0000000 kbps

The following example shows the output of the show platform hardware crypto-throughput level command after you apply an 8-Gbps crypto-throughput upgrade license:

Router# show platform hardware crypto-throughput level
*Jun 17 22:07:07.078: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
The current crypto throughput level is 8000000 kbps

To remove the configuration, enter the following command:

Router(config)# no platform hardware crypto-throughput level 8g
% Crypto Bandwidth reset to default 0g bps.

Note

Configuring a higher-level license automatically enables the lower-level licenses as Right to Use (RTU) if the corresponding permanent licenses are not installed yet. For example, configuring 16-25g automatically enables 8g and 8-16g as RTU.
