Cisco Catalyst 3850 Switch Right-to-Use Licensing Model

The Cisco Catalyst 3850 Switch right-to-use (RTU) is a trust-based licensing model designed to give customers the
flexibility to upgrade, downgrade, or move the license for RMA purposes by using simple EXEC commands. The
RTU licensing model allows customers to specify the desired image-based licensing level (LAN Base, IP Base, and
IP Services) and AP-Count on the switch or switch stack through EXEC commands.
About the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Switch RTU license:
●
The RTU license is purchased along with the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Switch (or separately) and is NOT tied to
the unique device identifier (product ID + serial number) of a switch.
●
When you purchase a switch, the license you specified in the purchase order is preinstalled.
●
To upgrade the license, you can order an upgrade license and receive an electronic or printed license. After
accepting the end-user license agreement (EULA), you enable the upgrade by using a simple CLI
command.
●
To transfer RTU licenses from one switch to another, deactivate the license on one switch and activate it on
another.

RTU License Types

There are two main categories of Cisco Catalyst 3850 Switch RTU license: a permanent RTU license and a 90-day
evaluation RTU license.
