LEARNThe Catalyst 4500-X supports three main licenses: IP Base (Layer 2 switching and basic Layer 3 routing), IP Services (advanced routing protocols and MPLS), and Performance Upgrade (increased forwarding capacity up to 720 Gbps).
Purchase the Catalyst 4500-X IP Services upgrade PAK, apply the PAK code in the Cisco Licensing portal, then install the new license via the CLI command “license install .”
Yes. Use the Cisco License Reservation and Transfer tool to return the existing license, then rehost it to the new chassis by applying the PAK code through the Cisco Smart Software Manager.
The Performance Upgrade license unlocks additional forwarding capacity—each license increments throughput by 120 Gbps, up to a maximum of 720 Gbps per chassis.
