Factory Default Premier Trial License

New hardware switches include a Factory Default Premier Trial License to use all features (excluding MACsec). You can run the extend-time-period command up to three times to extend the trial license. You can configure all features, except MACsec, without restrictions and save the configuration.

You cannot configure new features after the trial period, but the switch continues to run with the existing configured features. If you reboot the switch after the trial period, and a valid software license is not present, licensed features in the configuration are not loaded. You must install a valid license to enable licensed features.
