Deactivate a Feature License or Subscription Using the CLI
Use the CLI to deactivate a fixed model feature license,
an ELA license, or a subscription.
If you installed a license/subscription on
a firewall and need to reassign it to another firewall, you can
deactivate the individual license and re-use the same authorization code
on another firewall without help from Technical Support. This capability
is supported in the CLI only and is supported on both physical and
virtual devices running PAN-OS. This procedure is typically used
with fixed-model perpetual or ELA licenses.
Internet Access (Auto Mode)
- Log into the CLI on the firewall.View the name of the license key for the feature you want to deactivate.request license deactivate key featuresDeactivate the license or subscription.Use the auto mode to remove the license key.request license deactivate key features <name> mode autoThe name is the full name for the license key file. For example:admin@vmPAN2> request license deactivate key features <name>
WildFire_License_2015_01_28_I5820573.key mode auto007200002599 WildFire License Success Successfully removed license keys
No Internet Access (Manual Mode)
Use manual mode to remove the license key and generate a license token for a model-based license. This procedure assumes you have installed the license API key on your firewall.- Log into the CLI on the firewall.View the name of the license key for the feature you want to deactivate.request license deactivate key featuresDeactivate the license manually from the command line.request license deactivate key features <name> mode manualFor example:admin@PA-VM> request license deactivate key features
