Licensing Requirements

A license is required to activate Dynamic Segmentation and if the license is not installed, controllers will not be allowed to form tunnels to Aruba switches and the feature will not be functional. The AP/switch consumes the following license types:
  • AP

    PEFNG

    RFP

    WebCC

    MC-VA (for VMC-MD)

The show license-usage ap command displays license usage for User-Based Tunnels. Licenses are consumed per switch and User-Based Tunnels will show up alongside APs for license consumption.
