Hi,
I have got a stack of two 3750E switches. They have permanent license for IPBAse and evaluation license for IPServices. When I check the license details I get following output showing three indexes.
1) Does this mean the as soon as first evaluation license expires the next one would be active ?
2) Is there any way to activate second evaluation license while i wait for permanent license ?

Basically, when the Eval license expires it will revert back to the Permanent license.

Yes that is correct. My question is can we re-apply another Evaluation license ? Is there a limit on how many times you can use Eval license?
