PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS CAREFULLY. INSTALLING THE LICENSE OR
 LICENSE KEY PROVIDED FOR ANY CISCO PRODUCT FEATURE OR USING SUCH
 PRODUCT FEATURE CONSTITUTES YOUR FULL ACCEPTANCE OF THE FOLLOWING
 TERMS. YOU MUST NOT PROCEED FURTHER IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO BE BOUND
 BY ALL THE TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN.

Use of this product feature requires an additional license from Cisco,
 together with an additional payment. You may use this product feature
 on an evaluation basis, without payment to Cisco, for 60 days. Your use
 of the product, including during the 60 day evaluation period, is
 subject to the Cisco end user license agreement
 http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/general/warranty/English/EU1KEN_.html
 If you use the product feature beyond the 60 day evaluation period, you
 must submit the appropriate payment to Cisco for the license. After the
 60 day evaluation period, your use of the product feature will be
 governed solely by the Cisco end user license agreement (link above),
 together with any supplements relating to such product feature. The
 above applies even if the evaluation license is not automatically
 terminated and you do not receive any notice of the expiration of the
 evaluation period. It is your responsibility to determine when the
 evaluation period is complete and you are required to make payment to
 Cisco for your use of the product feature beyond the evaluation period.

Your acceptance of this agreement for the software features on one
 product shall be deemed your acceptance with respect to all such
 software on all Cisco products you purchase which includes the same
 software. (The foregoing notwithstanding, you must purchase a license
 for each software feature you use past the 60 days evaluation period,
 so that if you enable a software feature on 1000 devices, you must
 purchase 1000 licenses for use past the 60 day evaluation period.)

Activation of the software command line interface will be evidence of
 your acceptance of this agreement.
