Network Interfaces on the Cisco CSR 1000V section on page 10 3 Adding and Deleting Network Interfaces on the Cisco CSR 1000V A The Cisco CSR 1000V maps the router GigabitEthernet interfaces to the logical vNIC name assigned by the VM which in turn is mapped to a MAC address on the VM host You can add or delete vNICs on the VM to add or delete GigabitEthernet interfaces on the Cisco CSR 1000V You can add vNICs while the router is active To delete a vNIC from the VM you must first power down the VM If you delete any vNICs the router must be rebooted For more information about adding and deleting vNICs see the VMware Documentation Caution Cisco recommends using caution before removing any existing vNICs on the Cisco CSR 1000 VM If you remove a vNIC without first updating the Cisco CSR 1000V network interface configuration you risk a configuration mismatch when the router reboots When the router reboots and a vNIC has been removed the remaining logical vNIC names could get reassigned to different MAC addresses As a result the GigabitEthernet network interfaces on the Cisco CSR 1000V could get reassigned to different physical interfaces on the hypervisor Before you add or delete network interfaces first verify the interface to vNIC mapping using the show platform software vnic if interface mapping command I OL 27477 07 Cisco CSR 1000V Series Cloud Services Router Software Configuration Guide gy Chapter 10 M

79. DI The Cisco CSR 1000V license is node locked to the vUDI If you clone the Cisco CSR 1000V to a new VM instance the vUDI is in most cases automatically updated when the router first boots up on the cloned machine However if the vUDI is not automatically updated you must manually request a new vUDI on the cloned VM instance A Caution Requesting anew vUDI will invalidate the existing license If you later need to rehost the license due to a system failure you may need to perform additional steps on the Cisco Software Licensing portal For more information on rehosting the Cisco CSR 1000V license see Appendix A Rehosting the Cisco CSR 1000V License Perform the following step in EXEC mode SUMMARY STEPS 1 request license new udi DETAILED STEPS Command or Action Purpose Step1 request license new udi Requests that a new virtual UDI be assigned to the Cisco CSR 1000V VM instance Example Router request license new udi Once you enter the request license new udi command you will be prompted to confirm and then you will receive a series of system messages confirming the request Executing this command will invalidate the existing license proceed with generating new udi confirm New udi CSR1000V 9MF19951DMU Router Aug 21 11 24 27 275 found an eval license info csrikv_medium Aug 21 11 24 27 276 Step 3 deletion of NOT in use licenses Aug 21 11 24 27 276 Step 4 deletion of in use licenses
