D-Link DGS-3630-52TC Switch Image Upgrade Licence
Enable the Routing Features Your Network Needs Extend the software capabilities of a compatible DGS-3630-52TC without replacing the switch. Choose the upgrade path that matches its installed image and the features required by your network: Standard to Enhanced, Enhanced to MPLS, or Standard directly to MPLS. Enhanced Image adds documented enterprise Layer 3 routing and multicast functions. MPLS Image includes those capabilities and adds service-provider functions such as IS-IS and MPLS VPN. This is a model-specific software entitlement, with the switch and any configuration services supplied separately.

Key Features
Match the Existing Switch and Image
This licence family is specific to DGS-3630-52TC. Check the model, serial number, installed image and supported firmware before choosing an edition. A similar chassis, another DGS-3630 model or a switch already supplied with the target image does not establish that an additional upgrade is needed.
Add Enterprise Layer 3 Functions
Enhanced Image includes the Standard Image capabilities and adds documented routing functions such as OSPF, BGP and VRF-Lite, together with Layer 3 multicast. Choose Standard to Enhanced when those additional capabilities match the intended network design and the switch currently runs an eligible Standard Image.
Extend a Supported Deployment to MPLS
MPLS Image includes the Standard and Enhanced Image functions and adds documented service-provider capabilities such as IS-IS, LDP, VPWS, VPLS and BGP/MPLS VPN. Choose the starting-image path carefully. Enhanced to MPLS and Standard to MPLS are different entitlements, even though both lead to MPLS Image.
Plan the Upgrade Around the Network
An image licence enables supported software functions; it does not configure routing, increase physical port counts or add PoE capacity. Review the topology, addressing, policies and firmware requirements before deployment. Back up the configuration and schedule the activation and required restart during an appropriate maintenance window.
