# ICX6450 Licensing
**DISCLAIMER:** This is intended for educational use only, or for a homelab type environment.
Brocade licenses are keyed to a specific switch License ID, so they cannot be loaded on multiple switches. Thankfully these IDs are stored in a separate EEPROM and can be easily changed.
To download and use the master license files in this guide on as many switches as you need, you simply need to change your license ID to match. Only the license code reads this value, so changing it has no negative effects.

# FCX Licensing
**DISCLAIMER:** This is intended for educational use only, or for a homelab type environment.
Brocade switches used to be licensed via a physical EEPROM with a magic string written into it. When the OS booted and saw this magic string, it knew to enable advanced features.
The FCX was the last Brocade model to use this scheme before moving to keyed software licenses. They even shipped with a blank EEPROM in the socket ready to go. This means we just need to write the magic string to this EEPROM to fully unlock licensed features.
