Usage Guidelines
Usage Scenario
When clients need to load a license file, specify the license file on the Commander.
Precautions
You can load a license file only on modular switches. When a fixed switch serves as the client, the license file cannot be loaded even after you specify the license file information.
Information about the files to be downloaded can be set in the Easy-Operation view or Easy-Operation group view:
- The file information set in the Easy-Operation view is the default file information. If no file information is set in the group database or client database, the group or client uses the default file information.
- The files specified in the Easy-Operation group view can be downloaded by the clients that match the group.
The names of the files to be downloaded cannot be the same as system license files. Otherwise, the upgrade fails.
Example
# Specify a default license file for clients.
<HUAWEI> system-view [HUAWEI] easy-operation [HUAWEI-easyoperation] license easy/test.dat
# Specify a license file in a MAC address-based group.
<HUAWEI> system-view [HUAWEI] easy-operation [HUAWEI-easyoperation] group custom mac-address test [HUAWEI-easyoperation-group-custom-test] license license.dat
