Usage Guidelines

Note

Note

Use this command only under the guidance of an Extreme Networks representative.

When you run the command, the following message appears:

This will clear the license information stored in EEPROM and also delete the license file (license.xlic). Are you sure you want to continue? (y/N)

Selecting “yes” removes the license information from the EEPROM and the switch deletes the license.xlic file permanently.

Using the port-speed license keyword removes all port speed licensing. Port speed licenses increase the rate from 10G to 100G on QSFP28+ ports 1 through 24 on ExtremeSwitching X870-96x-8c switches.

Example

The following command removes licensing information from the switch:

# clear license
