Usage Guidelines

The controller delivers a virtual license to perform management. You do not need to load the entity license for the switch. This facilitates the management and control of the functions related to the entity license.

You can run this command to check detailed information about the virtual licence file in the current system, including the name of the virtual control item, status of the virtual license, and expiration date of the virtual license.
