expiration CO-TERMINATION Licences

Hello

All my licence are expiring 10/02/2025 (i am in the 30 days of free extension)

21 x MR 

12 x  MX67

6 x MX67X

1 x  MX84

 

We did not provide the renew in our accounts. 

Is it possible to renew just 1 X MX84 licence to provide 6 month for all licences (with co termination system)

 

Thank you

Kind of a big deal

In order to renew, you'll need to renew all licenses.

To just extend your Co-Term date, you'll need to purchase and apply an additional new license.

It's not possible to split a license for one device across all devices in quite the way you are asking.   Nor is it possible to renew for less than a year.

While it's not generally a recommended approach, what you could do is add a license using the 'add more devices' option, which is likely to push out the renewal date   (remember that, in co-termination, that date does apply to all the devices)  - but to move the date out any great amount you will need quite a lot of value in that license, to cover all those devices.   I.e. it would need to be an expensive product or a long term, or both.   You can use the License Calculator to evaluate what you might need:  https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Licensing/Using_the_License_Calculator

 

Have you spoken to your Cisco account team?  If you are remaining with Cisco technology for this requirement, or more generally, they may have more leeway to help you out on the commercials - i.e.  still sell you a year of proper renewal licensing (this is definitely the best path here) - but at a more accessible price.

Here's a practical example of what @GreenMan mentioned using the License Calculator

 

Your current state expiring 2025.10.02

If you were to "Add" a MX84 with a 7 year license it would bump the entire Org to 2026.04.18 adding a little over 6 months to the entire Org.

You could of course accomplish this in many different ways using different model licenses and durations. My example is just a basic one.
