Licensing Appliance for Evaluation

lvandiver — Mon, 27 Feb 2023 17:33:45 GMT

I am trying to apply an Eval license to R 77.20.87. When I generate the license, I change the Management IP to the internal IP. When I attempt to apply the license I receive the following response.

cplic put 127.0.0.1 28Apr2023 afwyEC2YY-.....

"This license cannot be installed on the local machine:
The license IP Address does not match any of the local machine's IP Addresses.
If this license has an IP Address of the Security Management, use SmartUpdate to install it"

Which "internal IP" are you setting it to?
If you're using loopback, as shown in your cplic put, that will not work.
It should be any IP assigned to the device that isn't loopback.

Also, when applying the evaluation, you only need to enter the "gateway" portion of the license string without a module name.
(e.g. cplic put x.y.z.w 30Mar2023 ... )

I am not using loopback. I don't know why it's assigning that IP when I create the license. When I create the license, I am putting the internal IP For the Management Interface. That is; the IP I use to connect to the management interface. Pictured.

Regardless of appliance or version, that message will show up if IP tied to the license does not exist on the appliance. Can you show IPs assigned? Please blur out any sensitive info.

This type of evaluation license is not supported on SMB appliances.
Please use the All-in-One evaluation.

Which is the "All-in-one"?

From the self service evaluation page it's the middle option.
