EXOS license for MPLS

Ermin — Mon, 09 Nov 2020 20:10:11 GMT

Dear all,

could anyone help me to resolve question, do we need any additional licenses for activating MPLS feature on Extreme X440-G2 switches?

We already have a production network with Extreme 440-G2 switches with standard licence, now customer want to expand network and use MPLS/IP protocol on this switches. Switches are with EXOS 22.3 and 22.7 versions.

Thanks in advance.

Hello!

As far as I remember - X440 don’t know MPLS.

As usual, for other X-series models you have to use MPLS Feature Pack.

Thank you!

Hello,

Alexanr is right. X440G2 doesn’t support MPLS.

MPLS is only supported at X460-G2, X670-G2, X465, X590, X870, X690 and you need at minimum an “Advanced Edge” license plus the MPLS feature pack.

Hi,

Thanks, @Alexandr P and @StephanH for your answers. I was looking through the documentation, and I can't find anywhere MPLS supporting for X440-G2. So, I wasn't sure about it.

Best regards.
