Step 5 | In the Device Actions pane on the right, click Manage
Licenses. The Manage Licenses screen provides the
following information:
-
Smart License Agent status: Shows whether you're using a
90-day evaluation license, or if you have registered with the Cisco
Smart Software Manager. The Smart License Agent status can be the
following:
-
"Connected," "Sufficient Licenses" - The device has
contacted and registered successfully with the License
Authority, which has authorized the license entitlements for
the appliance. The device is now In-Compliance.
-
Out-of-Compliance - There's no available license
entitlement for the device. Licensed features continue to
work. However, you can either purchase or free up extra
entitlements to become In-Compliance.
-
Authorization Expired - The device hasn't communicated
with the Licensing Authority in 90 or more days. Licensed
features continue to work. In this state, the Smart License
Agent retries its authorization requests. If a retry
succeeds, the agent enters either an Out-of-Compliance or
Authorized state and begins a new Authorization Period. Try
manually synchronizing the device.
-
License Registration: Allows you to apply smart-license to an
already onboarded FDM-managed device. Once registered, you can see the status of the connection
to the Cisco Smart Software Manager and the status for each type of
license.
-
License Status: Shows the status of the optional licenses
available for your FDM-managed device. You can enable a license to use the
features controlled by the license.
