[Command]

show license status

[Purpose]

Show the current license status of the device.

[View]

System View

[Comment]

The current device supports license-controlled authorizations for features such as IGMP, TUNNEL, ROUTER, CLI, etc. If the license does not authorize the function of a specific module, that module cannot be used and its commands cannot be configured. If the license expires, already configured functions will continue to operate normally, but the corresponding commands cannot be executed. It is recommended to promptly provide the device serial number (viewable via show version), apply for and update the license file.Upload the obtained license file to the /etc/sonic/lic/ directory on the device. The new license will take effect automatically after approximately 3 minutes.

[Use Cases]

sonic# show license status
