It depends. MACSEC on EX and QFX first had a license warning and a permanent minor alert when configured on these platforms. With Junos 18 they introduced MACSEC License Enforcement, i.e. no more MACSEC for you if you don't have a valid license installed.

Introducing license warnings and minor alerts when conifguring a static route on MX304 might be a sign of things to come. When buying MX304, you are now running the risk of this device only being able to work as a switch after a firmware upgrade, unless you have a valid license installed.
