Using Licenses (J Series Routing Platform Only)
The Maintain>Licenses page displays a summary of the licenses needed and used for each feature that requires a license on a J Series routing platform. This page also allows you to add licenses.
To enable some Junos OS features on a J Series routing platform, you must purchase, install, and manage separate software licenses. The presence on the router of the appropriate software license keys (passwords) determines the features you can configure and use. Each feature license is tied to exactly one software feature, and that license is valid for exactly one J Series routing platform.
Using the Maintain>Licenses page, you can perform the following tasks:
- Add licenses—Add license keys for the following
features:
- Data link switching (DLSw) support
- Flow monitoring traffic analysis support
- Advanced Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) features that enable route reflectors for readvertising BGP routes to internal peers.
- Delete licenses—Delete one or more license keys from a J Series routing platform with the J-Web license manager.
- Display license keys—Display the license keys in text format. Multiple licenses are separated by a blank line.
Alternatively, you can run the following commands at the J-Web CLI terminal. For more information, see Using the CLI Terminal. For more information about the commands, see the Junos OS Operational Mode Commands.
- show system license—Display license information.
- request system license add—Add licenses on J Series routers.
For more information about licenses, see the Getting Started Guide for your J Series router.
