1/23/2015 Cisco IOS Software Licensing - Cisco
To remove a license entry from license storage, use the license clear
command in privileged EXEC mode. This command does not have a no
form.
Cisco Router Platforms
license clear feature­name
Cisco Catalyst 3560­E Switch Platforms
license clear feature­name
Cisco Catalyst 3750­E Switch and Switch Stack Platforms

Syntax Description

feature­ Name of the feature to be removed.


name

switch (Optional) Specifies a switch in a switch


stack.
Specifies a switch in a mixed switch stack.

switch­ (Optional) Integer from 1 to 9 that identifies a


num switch in a switch stack.
Integer from 1 to 9 that identifies a switch in a
mixed switch stack.

Command Default
Licenses are not removed.
Command Modes
Privileged EXEC
Command History

Release Modification
12.2(35)SE2 This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines
The license clear command verifies that the license line is valid and
explicitly installed. Only explicit licenses that have been added using the
license install command are removed. Implicit evaluation licenses are
not removed.
When a switch is specified, the license clear command is executed
only on that switch. When a mixed stack platform is used, the master
switch has installed the minimum licensing feature needed to support
the licensing operations of the slave switches. The license clear
command is used to clear a license from license storage, which a
master switch does not have. When the command is issued from the
master switch, the switch number is required to clear a license on a
specific switch.
If a license line is in use, the license clear command fails. For image­
based licensing, the infrastructure has a dedicated callback to check in
the license, so the clear command could succeed. In this case, after the
license is cleared, error messages indicate that the device is running
without a valid license. This option is not available for feature licenses.
Examples
The following example shows how to clear a license associated with
feature12:
Router# license clear feature12

The following example shows how to clear a license associated with


feature12 on switch 9:
Switch# license clear feature12 switch 9

license comment
To add or remove a comment about a feature license, use the license
comment command in privileged EXEC mode. This command does not
have a no form.

Syntax Description

add Adds a comment about a feature license.

name

comment String of a maximum of 99 characters.

delete Deletes a comment about a feature license.

switch Specifies a switch in a switch stack.

switch­ Integer from 1 to 9 that identifies a switch in


num a switch stack.

Command Default
Comments are not added or deleted.
Command Modes
Privileged EXEC
Command History

Release Modification
12.2(35)SE2 This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines
This command checks if a license associated with the specified feature
is present in license storage. If a license is present and multiple license
lines are stored, you are prompted to select a license line. If a comment
exists in the license line, the comment is displayed before you are
prompted to delete a comment or enter a new one.
This command is useful for both tracking a license when multiple
licenses are stored on a device and for clarifying or adding information
about a specific license.

license install
To install a license stored in a license file, use the license install
command in privileged EXEC mode. This command does not have a no
form.
