L-C3750X-48-S-E= Use Case
Scalable Enterprise Campus Routing & Security Upgrade
A global enterprise operating 100+ building stacks upgrades its Cisco 3750-X from IP Base to IP Services E-License (L-C3750X-48-S-E=) to enable OSPFv3, EIGRP, BGP and VRF-Lite segmentation across the campus. The outcome is simplified multi-department routing, dynamic path optimization and enhanced ACL security, reducing inter-VLAN latency by 30% and boosting network resilience.
Converged VoIP & Video Conferencing with Advanced QoS and Multicast
An enterprise unified communications rollout leverages the Cisco 3750-X IP Services E-License to unlock advanced QoS policies, Layer 3 PIM-SM multicast routing and real-time traffic prioritization for VoIP and video streams. This delivers consistent sub-30 ms jitter, zero packet loss for voice/video and a 50% reduction in help-desk tickets tied to call quality.
Service Provider MPLS VPN & IPv6 Dual-Stack Aggregation
A regional service provider upgrades its campus aggregation layer to Cisco 3750-X with IP Services E-License to activate MPLS L3-VPN, IPv6 routing and enhanced security features on a single platform. The result is seamless IPv4/v6 coexistence, support for 1,000+ VPN customers and rapid deployment of new revenue-generating services without additional hardware.

Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco L-C3750X-48-S-E= license?
The Cisco L-C3750X-48-S-E= is an E-License upgrade that converts a Cisco Catalyst 3750-X 48-port IP Base switch to the IP Services feature set, unlocking advanced Layer 3 routing and security capabilities.
What features does the IP Services E-License add to a 3750-X switch?
The IP Services E-License enables full Layer 3 routing protocols (OSPF, EIGRP, BGP), MPLS-lite, IPv6 routing, advanced QoS, and security features such as VRF-Lite and IP-MPLS integration.
How does the IP Base license differ from the IP Services license?
The IP Base license supports basic Layer 3 static and RIP routing, limited IPv6 functionality, and standard QoS, while the IP Services license adds dynamic routing, MPLS-lite, advanced security and full IPv6 support.
Is the IP Services E-License perpetual or subscription-based?
The L-C3750X-48-S-E= is a perpetual license which remains valid for the life of the switch; there is no recurring subscription fee after purchase.
Which Catalyst 3750-X models are compatible with this E-License?
This license is compatible with all Cisco Catalyst 3750-X switches featuring 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports (model C3750X-48-S) running IOS 15.0(2)E or later.
How do I install the IP Services E-License on my switch?
Install via CLI: copy the license file to flash, then run “license install flash:license_file.lic” and reload. After boot, verify with “show license status.”
Can I transfer the IP Services license to another switch?
Yes. License transfer is supported under Cisco’s license mobility policy. Use “license clear” on the source device, then install on the target switch following standard procedures.
How do I verify that the IP Services license is active?
Issue “show license feature” in privileged exec mode. Active IP Services features will be marked “Enabled” under the license status output.
Do I need a Cisco SMARTnet contract for the IP Services license?
SMARTnet is not required to operate the license, but it is highly recommended for software updates, technical support, and access to new IOS releases.
What are the key benefits of upgrading to IP Services on 3750-X?
Key benefits include dynamic routing scalability, enhanced security, full IPv6 support, advanced QoS, and MPLS-lite capabilities for complex enterprise deployments.
Are software maintenance fees included with the E-License?
No maintenance fees are bundled with the perpetual license. Ongoing software updates require an active SMARTnet or software support contract.
How do I order a replacement license file if mine is lost?
Contact your Cisco reseller or submit a case through Cisco’s Licensing Portal with proof of purchase to obtain a replacement license file at no extra cost.
What is the throughput improvement after upgrading to IP Services?
Throughput remains the hardware’s maximum switching capacity (up to 216 Gbps switching fabric), but advanced routing offload improves CPU efficiency under heavy layer-3 loads.
What happens if I power cycle before installing the license?
The switch will continue running on the IP Base feature set. To activate IP Services you must install the license and reload; no feature degradation occurs on reboot.
How do I troubleshoot license installation errors?
Check IOS compatibility (15.0(2)E+), verify license checksum, ensure correct device MAC in the file, and review “show license all” logs for error codes and remediation steps.
Is there a grace period for license installation on a new switch?
Yes. A 60-day evaluation license activates automatically, allowing full IP Services functionality until you install the permanent E-License file.
