License |
This menu is used to enter and display the licenses that the system has. The menu is access by selecting System in the menu bar and clicking on Licenses.
Each license is a unique 32-character string based on the feature being licensed and the Feature Key number of the System SD card installed in the system control unit. The Feature Key number is shown on the Home menu and should be used when requesting licenses.
License keys can be cut and pasted into the Key field. Entering licenses manually is liable to errors caused by miskeying of the correct 32-character string.
Licenses
Licenses are required for some features. The license keys are entered into the system configuration and are based on the unique Feature Key number of the System SD card installed in the system and the feature being enabled.
• | Software Upgrade Licenses Existing systems being upgraded to IP Office Release 8.0 will require an upgrade license. |
|
• | SIP Trunk Channel Licenses The system can support 3 simultaneous SIP calls without needing licenses. Additional simultaneous calls, up to 20 in total, require the addition of licenses to the configuration. |
• | VCM Channels Note that for SIP calls the system also requires VCM channels. For a system those are provided by installing IP500 Combination base cards. Each of these cards (up to 2) provides 10 VCM channels. |
• | IP500 PRI Channel Licenses The IP500 PRI 1 trunk daughter card supports the use of its first 8 channels unlicensed. Use of additional channels require licenses to be added to the configuration. The maximum number of channels depends on the current Line Sub-Type setting of the PRI trunk. |
• | Embedded Voicemail Additional Ports Unlicensed, the embedded voicemail provided by the system supports 2 simultaneous connections and 15 hours of storage. This can be expanded up to 6 channels by the addition of licenses, each of which enables an additional two channels. Each license also enables an additional 5 hours of storage. |
For each license key entered, the following information is displayed:
• | Key This is the 32-character license string. |
• | Type: Information field, not editable. If the Key is recognized, the name of the feature it licenses is shown in this field. If Invalid is displayed it indicates that the Key has probably not been correctly entered. |
• | Status: This field shows the status of the license. |
• | Unknown is shown for newly entered licenses until the configuration is sent to the phone system and then reloaded again. |
• | Valid is shown if the license key matches the System SD card's Feature Key number. |
• | Invalid is shown if the license key does not match the SD card serial number. |
• | Dormant is shown if the license key is valid but is conditional on another license that is not present. |
• | Obsolete is shown if the license key is valid but the license is no longer used by the version of software installed in the phone system. |
• | Expiry Date: Information field, not editable. Some licenses have an expiry date, for example trial licenses. This field will indicate that date. |
• | Quantity: Information field, not editable. This field typically indicates how many items are enabled by the license. The meaning of this will vary depending on the feature being licensed. |
