I assume "license" infers purchasing the IOS you require? (So, if you require adv enterprise, you must purchase the license for it)
But you can purchase smartnet on secondhand kit, and you have full access to download whatever software you want? (But this would be deemed illegal?)

But you cant purchase (legally) refurb/secondhand kit and use it with the software running on it? That's my reading of this: The embedded Cisco software that runs on the hardware—as well as Cisco standalone software—is not transferable. If you purchase used or secondary-market Cisco equipment, you must acquire a new license from Cisco before the software can be used. The text above suggests that it's possible to acquire a new license, but I haven't figured out how to do it yet. /chris _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
