The ExtremeSwitching 5520 series switches now have a renewable trial license.
New ExtremeSwitching 5520 switches include a Factory Default (Evaluation) License to use all features (excluding MACsec). This Evaluation license is equivalent to a Premier license. You can configure all features, except MACsec, without restrictions and save the configuration. The evaluation periods was restricted to 30 days, and if after 30 days you did not obtain and installed a Premier license, and if you rebooted the switch, the switch will effectively have only Base license capabilities.
This enhancements allows you to extended the evaluation period by three more 30-day periods using a CLI command (see below).
