Is an evaluation license enabled by default?
Yes, there is a built-in evaluation license enabled by default for Prime Infrastructure, if you dont have any other valid license
present. The evaluation license provides 100 lifecycle device licenses and 150 assurance interface licenses valid for 60 days.
I am getting a pop up saying The Assurance feature .. Evaluation expires in 59 days . even
though I have applied a permanent license for Prime Infrastructure.
Prime Infrastructure supported multiple feature sets (e.g., Lifecycle and Assurance). Even though you have a permanent license
for Lifecycle, you dont have one for Assurance. You can choose to not show the pop-up by by clicking the Do not show
checkbox or remind me later button.
Are NCS 1.0 and NCS 1.1 license files valid for Prime Infrastructure 1.2?
Yes.
If a license file is corrupted what needs to be done?
If a license file is modified or becomes corrupted, you will need to open a case with the Cisco licensing team
(licensing@cisco.com). You should be prepared to provide the PAK, Product ID and Serial Number (UDI/VUDI), and Prime
Infrastructure version.
How do I install a license file?
You will receive the license file via email. Download the attachment to your local file system. From the Prime Infrastructure user
interface, select Administration > Licenses > Files > License File. Click on the Add button. Browse to the location where you
saved the file and select it. Logout of Prime Infrastructure and log back in to see the newly installed license file.
