Unregister a Smart-licensed FDM-Managed Device

If the device you want to onboard is running version 6.4 or 6.5, and is already smart-licensed, the device is likely to be registered with Cisco Smart Software Manager. You must unregister the device from Cisco Smart Software Manager before you onboard it to CDO with a registration Key. When you unregister, the base license and all optional licenses associated with the device, are freed in your virtual account.

After unregistering the device, the current configuration and policies on the device continue to work as-is, but you cannot make or deploy any changes.
