Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco Catalyst 3560-X Series License L-C3560X-48-L-S=?
The Cisco Catalyst 3560-X Series License L-C3560X-48-L-S= is a right-to-use electronic license that upgrades a C3560X-48 switch from LAN Base to IP Base feature set.
Which features does the IP Base license unlock on a C3560X-48 switch?
The IP Base license adds advanced Layer 3 routing protocols, OSPF, EIGRP stub, static route enhancements, IRB, and limited multicast and QoS features.
Is the L-C3560X-48-L-S= license perpetual or time-based?
The L-C3560X-48-L-S= license is perpetual, entitling you to use IP Base features for the switch’s lifetime without expiration.
How do I activate the IP Base license after purchase?
You activate the IP Base license by installing the license file on the switch using the Cisco License Manager or CLI commands and then reloading the device.
Can I revert from IP Base back to LAN Base if needed?
Yes. You can switch back to LAN Base by removing the IP Base license file via CLI and reloading the switch to restore original functionality.
Do I need additional hardware to use the L-C3560X-48-L-S= license?
No additional hardware is required. The IP Base feature set is enabled entirely through software licensing on the existing C3560X-48 device.
Is this license transferable between devices?
No. The license is node-locked to the switch serial number and cannot be transferred to another device.
How do I verify the license status on my Cisco switch?
Use the CLI command “show license status” or “show license all” to view activation state, feature sets, and entitlement details.
What is the difference between the IP Base and IP Services licenses?
The IP Base license provides core Layer 3 routing and QoS; IP Services adds full advanced routing protocols, BGP, MPLS, and comprehensive multicast support.
Can I upgrade directly from LAN Base to IP Services?
No. Cisco Catalyst 3560-X supports only LAN Base or IP Base on this model. IP Services licensing is unavailable for the 3560-X platform.

After purchase, you receive the license entitlement and file via email within 1–2 business days through the Cisco Smart Software Manager portal.
Is technical support included with the L-C3560X-48-L-S= license?
Licensing entitlements do not include TAC support. Cisco SMARTnet contracts are required separately for technical assistance and software updates.
Can I use Smart Licensing with the IP Base license?
Yes. The IP Base license supports Cisco Smart Licensing, enabling centralized management and compliance tracking via the Cisco Smart Software Manager.
Will the IP Base license affect switch performance?
No. The IP Base license only unlocks dormant software features and does not impact forwarding performance or hardware resources.
Where can I purchase the L-C3560X-48-L-S= license?
You can purchase the license from authorized Cisco resellers, distributors, or via the Cisco Commerce Workspace online portal.
