Руководство По Настройке для Cisco Cisco MDS 9000 NX-OS Software Release 4.1

All MDS 9000 directors and switches ship with 
built-in 120 day trial licenses, which temporarily 
enable advanced features and intelligent storage 
applications.   

How do I turn on a trial license?

STEP 1:
By default each licensed feature has a 120 day trial 
license period. You can make sure the grace period 
has not expired by running the command "show license 
usage” 

STEP 2:
Turning on the grace period of the license is as simple as 
using the feature. There is no specific command to turn on 
the trial license. Once you start using a licensed feature or 
enable a licensed feature or start configuring a licensed 
feature, NX-OS will start the clock on the 120 day trial 
usage period for that feature. 

NX-OS will turn on the default 120 day period. 

120-Day Free Trial: MDS 9000 Family Software Products

At-A-Glance

Cisco MDS 9000 Family Enterprise package 

includes advanced traffic engineering and 

advanced security features for enterprise 

SANs.

Includes advanced traffic management (Inter-VSAN Routing, 

QoS, Extended Credits) and security features (Switch-Switch 

and Host-Switch authentication, LUN Zoning, Read-Only Zones, 

Port Security, VSAN Based Access Control, IPsec for iSCSI 

and FCIP), IKE Digital Certificates, and Fabric Binding for  

Fibre Channel.

Cisco MDS 9000 Family SAN Extension over 

IP package provides an integrated, cost-

effective, and reliable business continuance 

solution that uses the existing IP infrastructure.

FCIP Protocol Support, FCIP Compression, Inter-VSAN Routing 

for FCIP, FCIP Write Acceleration, FCIP Read/Write Tape 

Acceleration, SAN Extension Tuner.

The Cisco Storage Media Encryption feature 

for Cisco MDS 9000 family switches encrypts 

data at rest on heterogeneous tape devices 

and virtual tape libraries.

Securely encrypts data at rest on heterogeneous tape drives 

and virtual tape libraries, integrates seamlessly into SAN 

as a transparent fabric service, requires no SAN rewiring or 

reconfiguration, offers high availability with clustering and fail-

over capabilities, provides comprehensive key management 

with integration to enterprise key managers, sure role-based 

managed using CLI and Cisco Fabric Manager.

This license is required to enable Cisco's  

MDS-based data migration feature. 

Customers can use this feature for their 

data mobility needs across heterogeneous 

storage arrays. 

Transparent insertion of service—MDS customers can turn 

on this service and proceed to move data from one Array to 

another without any disruption to Host Applications. Other 

capabilities include ability to schedule the cutover to the new 

array (point at which old array is phased out) and rate control 

of administrative traffic. DMM also supports migration across 

large geographical distances and the ability to migrate across 

unequal LUN sizes.

This package includes features required in 

mainframe environments. FICON, an archi-

tecture for high-speed connectivity between 

mainframe and I/O devices, is supported in 

Software version 1.3(4a) or later.

VSAN for FICON and FCP inter-mixing, FICON Control Unit 

Protocol (CUP), Fabric Binding, Switch Cascading, IBM 

TotalStorage Virtual Tape Server, IBM TotalStorage Extended 

Remote Copy (XRC), FICON Native Mode and Native Mode 

Channel-to-Channel Operation, Persistent FICON FCID  

assignment, Port Swapping for host channel cable connectors, 

and FICON Tape Acceleration.

Cisco Fabric Manager Server (FMS) package 

extends the features and functionality in  

Cisco Fabric Manager by providing historical 

performance monitoring for network traffic 

hot-spot analysis, centralized management 

services, and advanced application integra-

tion. 

Fibre Channel Statistics Monitoring, Reporting and Graphing, 

Intelligent Setup, Performance Database, Management Server, 

Multiple Fabric Management, Continuous Health and event 

monitoring, Common discovery, roaming user profiles, Cisco 

traffic analyzer integration, Performance Threshold, Web 

Client, FMS Proxy Services. Data collection auto-update; 

Customized analytics, performance charts, and reporting;  

and filtering by user defined groups. 

Cisco MDS 9000 Storage Services Enabler 

(SSE) package provides the underlying  

infrastructure and programmatic interface  

to enable intelligent fabric applications.

Network-hosted storage applications (such as storage  

virtualization for heterogeneous volume management,  

non-disruptive data migration, and heterogeneous data  

replication and snapshots) with FAIS-based Intelligent  

Storage API, SANTap Protocol for network-assisted storage 

applications, and Secure Erase.
