Licensed features
Feature licenses may be part of the licensed paperpack supplied with your switch software; if not, you can
purchase licenses separately from your switch vendor, who will provide you with transaction keys to unlock
the features. License keys are provided on a per-product and per-feature basis. Each switch within a fabric
needs its own licensing.
To preserve licenses on your switch, perform a configUpload before upgrading or downgrading your
Fabric OS.
If you downgrade your Fabric OS to a version earlier than 6.2.0, some licenses associated with specific
features of Fabric OS 6.2.0 may not work.
Licences can be associated with a feature version. If a feature has a version-based license, that license is
valid only for a particular version of the feature. If you want a newer version of the feature, you must
purchase a new license.
• Version upgrade: For example, a zoning license that is for Fabric OS version 6.0.0 is added. You
can add another zoning license with a version later than 5.2.0 without removing the zoning license
for Fabric OS 5.2.0. Upgrading is allowed, but downgrading is not supported.
If a license is not version-based, it is valid for all versions of the feature.
Table 4 lists the licenses that must be installed on the local switch and any connecting switches to use the
feature.
