Figure 10 shows an example of the license query results.
FIGURE 10 License Query results window
In this example, the line items for Level 1 display hardware-related information and the line items
for Level 2 display software-related information. If the query was performed before the transaction
key was generated, the first row (Level 1) would not appear as part of the search results. Similarly,
if the query was performed before the license was generated, some of the information in the
second row would not be displayed.
Transferring a license
A license can be transferred between Dell PowerConnect devices if the following conditions are
true:
• The device is under an active support contract, and
• The license is being transferred between two like-models (e.g., from a 24-port model to another
24-port model or from a 48-port model to another 48-port model).
Contact your Dell representative for more information.
