• The license is being transferred between two similar models (for example, from a 24-port
model to another 24-port model or from a 48-port model to another 48-port model).
NOTE
Transferring a license is only available internally for TAC, and externally for designated partners with
specific accounts in the Brocade software portal. Contact your Brocade representative for more
