TRIAL LICENSES EXPIRING

Hi,

Let’s say I have 9 MX appliances and 9 licenses, everything is fine.
But what happens if I add one more MX with a trial license, and that trial expires?

Since I know licenses are not tied to specific devices, how is this situation handled?

What device will stop processing traffic?

If you have co-term licensing then 30 days after the trial license expires the whole organisation will stop, unless you remove the trial MX from any of the networks in the organisation.

If you have per device licensing then nothing will happen.

If you have subscription licensing then you will need to true up at the annual renewal.

The network will stop to work.

 

Post-Trial

Why is the trial still in my Organization when it is expired?

A trial will automatically be removed from your network 30 days after the trial has ended. Make sure to you either have contacted your Sales Rep to buy the trial or have gone through the process to return it.

If your trial is a customer-generated SM trial then it will disappear within 30 days after the trial expires.

Why is my trial device missing from my organization?

Please note that expired trial devices may be removed from a customer's network after 30 days. If you cannot re-claim your trial device, please reach out to your Meraki Sales Rep to either purchase or extend your trial gear.
