My Network Lab: Cisco ASR1001-X Licensing via license install Command

It's important to re-host or request from Cisco TAC License team the appropriate licenses when you do a Return Material Authorization (RMA) for a Cisco ASR1K router. The RMA unit sent to me had an ipbase and there's no valid license found. I would need to activate the Advanced Enterprise adventerprise in order to run advanced BGP commands.

Issue a show license udi and give the serial number info to TAC.
