Prerequisites for Configuring Smart Licensing

You must have the following in CSSM:

• Network reachability to https://tools.cisco.com.

Introduction to Smart Licensing

Cisco Smart Licensing is a flexible licensing model that provides you with an easier, faster, and more consistent way to purchase and manage software across the Cisco portfolio and across your organization. And it’s secure you control what users can access. With Smart Licensing you get:

• Easy Activation: Smart Licensing establishes a pool of software licenses that can be used across the entire organization—no more PAKs (Product Activation Keys).
• Unified Management: My Cisco Entitlements (MCE) provides a complete view into all of your Cisco products and services in an easy-to-use portal, so you always know what you have and what you are using.
• License Flexibility: Your software is not node-locked to your hardware, so you can easily use and transfer licenses as needed.
  To use Smart Licensing, you must first set up a Smart Account on Cisco Software Central (software.cisco.com).
  For a more detailed overview on Cisco Licensing, go to cisco.com/go/licensingguide.

Overview of CSSM

Cisco Smart Software Manager (CSSM) enables you to manage all your Cisco smart software licenses from one centralized portal. With CSSM, you can organize and view your licenses in groups called virtual accounts (collections of licenses and product instances).
You can access the CSSM on https://software.cisco.com/#, by clicking the Smart Software Licensing link under the License tab.

Note
Use a Chrome 32.0, Firefox 25.0, or Safari 6.0.5 web browser to access CSSM. Also, ensure that Javascript 1.5 or a later version is enabled in your browser.

Use the CSSM to do the following tasks:

• Create, manage, or view virtual accounts.
• Create and manage Product Instance Registration Tokens.
• Transfer licenses between virtual accounts or view licenses.
• Transfer, remove, or view product instances.
• Run reports against your virtual accounts.
• Modify your email notification settings.
• View overall account information.
  CSSM Help describes the procedures for carrying out these tasks.

Connecting to CSSM

The following illustration shows the various options available to connect to CSSM:

1. Direct cloud access: In this method, Cisco products send usage information directly over the internet to Cisco.com; no additional components are needed for the connection.
2. Direct cloud access through an HTTPs proxy: In this method, Cisco products send usage information over the internet through a proxy server – either a Call Home Transport Gateway or an off-the-shelf proxy (such as Apache) to Cisco.com.
3. Mediated access through a connected on-premises collector: In this method, Cisco products send usage information to a locally-connected collector, which acts as a local license authority. Periodically, this information is exchanged to keep the databases synchronized.
4. Mediated access through a disconnected on-premises collector: In this method, Cisco products send usage information to a local disconnected collector, which acts as a local license authority. Exchange of human-readable information takes place occasionally (maybe once a month) to keep the databases synchronized.
   Options 1 and 2 provide an easy connection option, and options 3 and 4 provide a secure environment connection option. Cisco Smart Software Manager On-Prem (formerly known as Cisco Smart Software Manager satellite) provides support for options 3 and 4

Registering a Device on CSSM

To register a device on CSSM, you must do the following tasks:

1. Generate a unique token from the CSSM.
2. Register the device with the generated token.

On successful registration, the device will receive an identity certificate. This certificate is saved on your device and automatically used for all future communications with Cisco. CSSM will attempt to renew the registration information every 30 days.
Additionally, license usage data is collected and a report is sent to you every month. If required, you can configure your Call Home settings to filter out sensitive information (like hostname, username and password) from the usage report.

Generating a New Token from CSSM

Tokens are generated to register new product instances to the virtual account.

• Step 1 Log in to CSSM from https://software.cisco.com/#.
  You must log in to the portal using the username and password provided by Cisco.

• Step 2 Click the Inventory tab.

• Step 3 From the Virtual Account drop-down list, choose the required virtual account.

• Step 4 Click the General tab.

• Step 5 Click New Token.
  The Create Registration Token window is displayed.

• Step 6 In the Description field, enter the token description.

• Step 7 In the Expire After field, enter the number of days the token must be active.

• Step 8 (Optional) In the Max. Number of Uses field, enter the maximum number of uses allowed after which the token expires.

• Step 9 Check the Allow export-controlled functionality on the products registered with this token checkbox.
  Enabling this checkbox ensures Cisco compliance with US and country-specific export policies and guidelines. For more information, see https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/legal/global-export-trade.html.

• Step 10 Click Create Token to create a token.

• Step 11 After the token is created, click Copy to copy the newly created token.

Registering a Device with the New Token

To register a device with the new token, perform this procedure:

SUMMARY STEPS

1. enable
2. license smart register idtoken token_ID
3. write memory

DETAILED STEPS

Example:

Device> enable

| Enables privileged EXEC mode. Enter your password, if prompted.
Step 2| license smart register idtoken _tokenID

Example:

Device# license smart register idtoken

$Tl4UytrNXBzbEs1ck8veUtWaG5abnZJOFdDa1FwbVRa%0AblRMbz0%3D%0A

| Registers the device with the back-end server using the token generated from CSSM.
Step 3| write memory

Example:

Device# write memory

| Saves the license information on the device.

Verifying the License Status After Registration
To verify the status of a license after registration, use the show license all command.

Canceling a Device’s Registration in CSSM
When your device is taken off the inventory, shipped elsewhere for redeployment, or returned to Cisco for replacement using the return merchandise authorization (RMA) process, you can use the deregister command to cancel the registration of your device.

To cancel device registration, follow this procedure:

Before you begin
Layer 3 connection to CSSM must be available to successfully deregister the device.

SUMMARY STEPS

1. enable
2. license smart deregister

DETAILED STEPS

Device> enable

| Enter your password, if prompted.
Step 2| license smart deregister

Example:

Device# license smart deregister

| Cancels the device’s registration, and sends the device into evaluation mode. All smart licensing entitlements and certificates on the corresponding platform are removed. The device product instance stored on CSSM is also removed.

Monitoring Smart Licensing Configuration

Use the following commands in privileged EXEC mode to monitor smart licensing configuration.

Table 1: Commands to Monitor Smart Licensing Configuration

The following is the list of possible statuses:

•  Enabled: Indicates that smart licensing is enabled.

•  Waiting: Indicates the initial state after your device has made a license entitlement request. The device establishes communication with Cisco and successfully registers itself with the CSSM.

•  Registered: Indicates that your device is able to communicate with the CSSM, and is authorized to initiate requests for license entitlements.

•  Authorized: Indicates that your device is in Compliance status and is authorized to use the requested type and count of licenses. The

Authorization status has a lifetime of 90 days. At the end of 30 days, the device will send a new entitlement authorization request to the CSSM to renew the authorization.

•  Out Of Compliance: Indicates that one or more of your licenses are out of compliance. You must buy additional licenses.

•  Eval Mode: You must register the device with the CSSM within 90 days (of device usage).

Otherwise, your device’s evaluation period will expire.

•  Evaluation Period Expired: At the end of 90 days, if your device has not registered, the device

enters Evaluation Expired mode.
