Found this for Junos 12.3R2:

License Warning Messages

For using features that require a license, you must install 
and configure a license key. To obtain a license key, use 
the contact information provided in your certificate.

If you have not purchased the AFL or EFL and installed the 
license key, you receive warnings when you try to commit 
the configuration:

[edit protocols]
  'bgp'
warning: requires 'bgp' license
error: commit failed: (statements constraint check failed)

The system generates system log (syslog) alarm messages notifying 
you that the feature requires a license—for example:

Sep  3 05:59:11   craftd[806]:  Minor alarm set, BGP Routing Protocol usage 
requires a license
Sep  3 05:59:11   alarmd[805]: Alarm set: License color=YELLOW, class=CHASSIS, 
reason=BGP Routing Protocol usage requires a 
license
Sep  3 05:59:11   alarmd[805]: LICENSE_EXPIRED: License for feature bgp(47) 
expired

Output of the show system alarms command displays the active 
alarms:

user@switch show system alarms

1 alarm currently active
Alarm time   Class  Description
2009-09-03 06:00:11 UTC  Minor  BGP Routing Protocol usage requires a license

Cheers,

Mark.

The rumour is that at some point in the future, Juniper will 
add capability in newer release of code that physically 
enforces these licenses in software/hardware.

So while it could be just a paper/honour license today, it 
might not be tomorrow, in which case you either don't 
upgrade Junos or you buy the license.

I generally don't like licenses (especially now when both 
Cisco and Juniper are going stir-crazy with them in recent 
years), but I really don't like the ones that don't make any 
sense to me. With all my rumbling with the vendors, licenses 
appear to be a point of view perpetuated by vendors that 
are inspired by customers with varying needs and so few 
boxes to meet them.

Oh well...

Mark.

 That blade is only good for switching unless you have the appropriate
