SSH and Secure Copy (SCP) must be enabled on the Brocade device before the procedures in
this section can be performed. To copy the file from an SCP-enabled client to the license
database of a specific unit, enter the following command. In the example, the license is copied to
unit 1.

scp license.xml [email protected]:license:1

Syntax: scp license_filename_on_host@IP_address:license:unit_id

The unit_id variable specifies a unit for which you want to add a software license file. The unit_id
variable is 1.

Repeat step 1 through step 3 above to enable ports 1/1/33 to 1/1/48.

7.

Repeat step 1 through step 3 above to enable ports 1/1/33 to 1/1/56.

By default, once the license is installed, the ports are up in 10 GbE port speed. You do not need
to use the speed-duplex command, or reload the system to enable the ports to 10 GbE port
speed. As you upgrade from a lower port to a higher port capacity license, the new license
replaces the previous license.

Deleting an ICX6650-10G-LIC-POD license

When downgrading to a lower port capacity license using the ICX6650-10G-LIC-POD license, you
must first delete the higher port capacity license and then re-install the lower port capacity license in
your system. A reload is required for the license to take effect.
