Licensing
Software Activation Licensing
The Cisco Catalyst 4500E platform with Supervisor 7-E enables software activation licensing. Each Supervisor 7-E
will ship with a universal image containing all feature sets, LAN Base, IP Base, and Enterprise Services. The level
of functions is determined by the license applied.
Software activation licensing enables customers to:
●
Speed deployment and roll out new Cisco software activation feature sets across customers' global
networks
●
Centrally and more accurately manage and track software and license compliance
●
Easily conduct software compliance audits to meet regulations without affecting network operations
Operational simplicity:
●
Simplified upgrades and license transfers save time and improve productivity; you can add new capabilities
simply by using a license file
●
You can easily track software assets, licenses, and feature set status
●
A single software image improves service delivery
Ease of ordering:
●
“Try and buy” lets you use a temporary license to try and evaluate new Cisco IOS Software functions
before purchasing them
●
A pay-as-you-grow software key enables new features incrementally without service calls
