https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Enterprise/Perpetual-license-and-Term-license-in-one-environment/m-p/559314#M6376 I suppose that there is no need to restrict access with different pools. You just need to update the needed support by new term licenses. Perpetuals are valid until those end date comes (there seems to be that included on license file!)
