Cisco: Right to use Licensing

Cisco Right to use licensing allows you activate a specific license type and level for cretin types of equipment. A lot of times when we order a Cisco AppX or SecK9 license for a router or do a RMA on a piece of equipment I do not always need to activate a license and just configure the license as Right to use. Here are some of the commands to configure a right to use license

Conf t
License accept end user agreement
Yes
License boot level <License_Level> (Enter in the license name, appx, securityk9, ect)
Write memory
License right-to-use move <License_Level>

Other useful licenses commands:

To see a list of licenses and to see what is currently in use you can use the "Show License" command
To disable the license from a device you can use the "No license feature <License_Level>" command
