Viewing the Cisco IOS License Level
Use the show version command to determine the Cisco IOS license level in the router. For example:
Router# show version . . . License Level: adventerprise License Type: RightToUse Next reload license Level: adventerprise . . .
Table 1: show version Command Output Description
Field Name Description
License Level: adventerprise Indicates the current Cisco IOS license code level.
Indicates the type of license that is used.
This example shows that the Right-to-Use license is
used, which means that the purchase of a license is
required.
Other license types could be: Permanent (purchased)
license or an Evaluation 60-day license.
License Type: RightToUse
License Verification
Field Name Description
Indicates the startup configuration definition that will
be used for the next reload instance.
Next reload license Level: adventerprise
Use the show running-config command or the show startup-config command to view the license-level
information. The following example displays sample output from the show running-config command:
Router# show running-config . . . license boot level adventerprise . . .
Table 2: show running-config Command Output Description
Field Name Description
Indicates the current requested Cisco lOS license level
to boot.
license boot level adventerprise
Viewing License Information
Use the show license udi command to determine the Universal Device Identifier (UDI) information of your
chassis. This may be required at the time of purchasing a new license.
The following example displays sample output from the show license udi command:
Router# show license udi
SlotID PID SN UDI
- ASR1002-HX JAE1931098U ASR1002-HX:JAE1931098U
Use the show license all command to display all the applicable licenses in both Primary License Storage and
Built In License Storage.
Note Primary License Storage stores the currently purchased and installed licenses.
The following example displays sample output from the show license all command for the Cisco ASR 1001-HX

When license is requested for OC3 SPA, any two ports are free to use and license is requested when the third
port is unshut:
1. Unshut Port0-No license would be requested
2. Unshut Port2-No license would be requested
3. Unshut Port1-One unit of license would be requested
4. Unshut Port3-No additional license is required
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
Note
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.
1. Shut Port0-No license would be released. Ports1, 2 and 3 are in unshut state and only onne unit of license
is consumed.

2. 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.
1. Shut Port0-One license is released, Port1 is in unshut state and no units of license is consumed.

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.

Licensing Scenarios for Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router
The following table provides all possible licensing scenarios for the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router.
In the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router, Bay 0 can only support 1GE SFP and Bay 1 can only support 10GE SFP+
speed.

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.
