Clearing, Showing, and Moving Licenses

Licenses can be displayed, applied, and cleared only with the license commands described in this
chapter. General configuration commands such as show config or clear config do not apply to
licenses.
Every license is associated with a specific hardware platform, based on the serial number of the
hardware platform. If you need to move a license from one hardware platform to another, you
must contact Enterasys Customer Support to arrange for re‐hosting of the license.
