MR-MX and MS Licenses Expire Scenario

[Mohammad]

Hi,

I have devices from MX, MR and many MS and they are working fine in Network,  I am confuse what will happen if my licenses got expire in few couple of months, i know i can get 1 month grace period, but what will exactly happen if it expire for my devices?

If you refuse to renew, after the grace period, the network will cease to function. Your access to the dashboard will be limited to the licensing page, and your network users will get a message to contact their administrator. A situation you'll want to avoid :).

Thanks Mate,

I understand there is limited access to Dashboard to licensing page only.

If talk about user tarffic or Data traffic, its also going to stop after license expire?

[PhilipDAth]

The kit uses a firewall rule that blocks all user traffic after the licence has expired. 

[Mohammad]

 @PhilipDAth all user traffic locally also will be blocked in same subnet also?

[PhilipDAth]

That passes through an MS, correct. 

[Mohammad]

for example, if 2 user on same subnet on same switch, this also will be blocked after  license expire ?

[PhilipDAth]

From my understanding, yes. 

[Mohammad]

Anyone can share there inputs on License expire scenario for working devices?
