License support to enhance port capacity of MX5, MX10, and MX40 routers-By 
installing additional licenses, you can enhance the port capacity of your 
router without a hardware upgrade. For example, an MX5 router, an MX10 
router, or an MX40 router can have the port capacity of an MX80 router, 
provided the required licenses are installed. These routers use feature pack 
licenses, which provide additional port capacity with the same hardware. The 
soft enforcement policy allows the user to use a port for a certain period 
of time (usually a grace period of 30 days), and reverts if the license for 
that feature is not installed after the grace period. During the grace 
period, a reminder to purchase the license is reported in the system logs. 
Licenses can be upgraded or downgraded. When you downgrade the license, the 
port associated with the license is unusable.

Are you certain You have two MX80 units and not 1 MX80 unit and 1 MX5/10/40 
unit?

HTH
Thanks
