Licensing and Cisco Licensing Manager. You should note that IOS 15 enforces licensing for the Advanced feature sets. That is, you will need to register a license key for every IOS image that needs Advanced IP and receive an activation key to activate those features. Licensing is basically similar to how the ASA software licenses work today.

After looking at the announcement for End of Life support for IOS 12.4 (and you know that IOS 15 is the next version dont you ?) it’s worth looking into the big changes in IOS Feature licensing in case you are not aware of them.

Single Image

IOS 15 is a single software package for the hardware platform that your are using. Now that flash is cheap and large, there doesn’t need to be a different IOS image for the different versions with the advanced features. So you get one software image that has all the features for that platform.

Licensing is basically similar to how the ASA software licenses work today. You need to buy the license, receive the PAK key on a piece of paper, register this on Cisco website to receive an activation key and then enter it into the router. If you want access to the advanced feature sets, you will need to purchase the license and activate it on the router.

Yes, Cisco equipment just got a whole lot harder to manage.

Cisco License Manager

If you are a large company, it is time to implement Cisco Licensing Manager to manage the licenses on all of your equipment. This will allow you to manage and transfer licenses between physical units.

Operational Procedures

Note that when you replace a faulty router, you will have to activate the license on that router as part of the recovery process. So you will need to update your field engineers to make sure that they know how to do this and perform License Transfer Between Two Working Devices or get on the phone to the TAC or use the web to transfer a license.

I can’t see any point in blogging about this in detail, Cisco IOS 15.0 documentation is clear and concise as always. Cisco really does the best documentation.
You can find out more in the†Software Activation Configuration Guide.

Time to go and learn what you need to know.

I was trying to add IOU L2 Switch image on GNS3 VM but an wired license error didn’t permit me to start the L2 Switch image. It says:

error while starting IOU1: License section not found in iourc file /tmp/tmpkrjoe5hx/iourc

Here’s how I solved it.

Section 1: Download and add IOU Image on GNS3 VM

i) Download Cisco L2/L3 IOU image. Some of them can be found here. You can also Google it to download any specific image. I’m using i86bi-linux-l2-adventerprisek9-15.2d.bin for my L2 lab.

ii) Go to Preference > IOS on UNIX > IOU Devices and add the image.

iii) But when I tried to run the switch on GNS3. It shows a license error.

iv) When I check the license from Preference > IOS on UNIX, it’s emplty, no license is there.

Section 2: Generate and add the Cisco IOURC License

You need a licence for your GNS3 VM to run IOU. This licence is provided by Cisco. We called this licence file iourc.

The content of the licence file will be like this:

[license]
gns3vm = <16-character license>;

The license is actually generated by the Keygen with the combination of the hostname and the hostid and ioukey of your VM. The Keygen file is actually a Python script that looks like:

License

#! /usr/bin/python3
print(“*********************************************************************”)
print(“Cisco IOU License Generator – Kal 2011, python port of 2006 C version”)
import os
import socket
import hashlib
import struct
# get the host id and host name to calculate the hostkey
hostid=os.popen(“hostid”).read().strip()
hostname = socket.gethostname()
ioukey=int(hostid,16)
for x in hostname:
ioukey = ioukey + ord(x)
print(“hostid=” + hostid +”, hostname=”+ hostname + “, ioukey=” + hex(ioukey)[2:])
# create the license using md5sum
iouPad1 = b’x4Bx58x21x81x56x7Bx0DxF3x21x43x9Bx7ExACx1DxE6x8A’
iouPad2 = b’x80′ + 39*b’0′
md5input=iouPad1 + iouPad2 + struct.pack(‘!i’, ioukey) + iouPad1
iouLicense=hashlib.md5(md5input).hexdigest()[:16]
print(“nAdd the following text to ~/.iourc:”)
print(“[license]n” + hostname + ” = ” + iouLicense + “;n”)
with open(“iourc.txt”, “wt”) as out_file:
out_file.write(“[license]n” + hostname + ” = ” + iouLicense + “;n”)
print(“^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^nAlready copy to the file iourc.txtn “)
print(“You can disable the phone home feature with something like:”)
print(” echo ‘127.0.0.127 xml.cisco.com’ >> /etc/hostsn”)

Here’s how to generate the license using the Keygen.

i) Access the shell of your VM

ii) Download the Keygen in the directory /opt/gns3/images/IOU using the following command.

wget http://www.ipvanquish.com/download/CiscoIOUKeygen3f.py

iii) Once copied run the following command to generate the license.

python3 CiscoIOUKeygen3f.py

iii) Now, you can see that there is a new text file created named iourc.txt. It’s the file holding the license. You can open it to see the license.

iv) Now add the license to the empty field at Preference > IOS on UNIX. There you go, your IOU image will now run absolutely error free.
