Enabling Special Feature Licences

You must enable the special feature licence you have purchased before you can
use the licenced features. You will need the password provided by your
authorised distributor or reseller. The advanced upgrade licence and password
are different from the standard software release licence and password. The
licence cannot be transferred from one router to another.

For software features that require a special feature licence see “Special Features
Licences
” on page 9.

You must order passwords for special feature licences from your authorised distributor
or reseller. You must specify the special feature licence bundle and the serial number(s)
of the switch(s) on which the special feature licences are to be enabled.

The password for a special feature licence is a string of at least 16 hexadecimal
characters, and encodes the special feature or features covered by the license,
and the switch serial number. The password information is stored in the
switch’s FLASH memory.

To enable or disable the AT-RPFL3Upgrade use the commands:

ENABLE FEATURE=AT-RPFL3Upgrade PASSWORD=password

DISABLE FEATURE=AT-RPFL3Upgrade

Other features on the switch, such as Firewall, Remote Secure Shell and Triple
DES encryption, and support for Public Key Infrastructure may also need
special feature licences. To list the current special feature licences use the
command:

SHOW FEATURE[={featurename|index}]
