Short term extension of Meraki MX 100 license

Is it a possibility to extend the license by short term period (say one or two months). Especially  during this Covid 19 crisis Period ? Any idea ?

@Davewoonhp yes, while Meraki has temporarily disabled licensing enforcement during COVID-19, the countdown does continue and if the licensing has expired up until the end-date then the 30-day grace period automatically begins.  If you're looking for a 2-month extension in general, unrelated to that, you would need to convert to the Per Device License (PDL) model and you then have to option of purchasing 1-Day license SKUs.  For example, if all you have is an MX100, you could purchase 60 x LIC-MX100-XXX-1D for example, where XXX is ENT or SEC.  But price it out different ways, because at a certain point buying the 1YR license is more cost effective than a certain # of 1D licenses.

In usual times after the license is expired your customer has 30 day grace period to renew the licence.
after 30 days the only access they have to the dashboard is the license page.
But as specified above at the moment there is a COVID-19 disablement of the license enforcement
