At the end of the 90 day period, a permanent license must be applied to
re-enable this software module on the wireless LAN switch. Evaluation
software license certificates are electronic only and are emailed to the user.
Obtaining a Software License
To obtain either a permanent or evaluation software license, please contact
your sales account manager or authorized reseller. They will process your order
for a permanent license certificate or email an evaluation license certificate to
you as desired.
The Software Licensing Process
Software licenses (permanent or evaluation) are unlocked individually by
module type and are applied to each Alcatel wireless LAN switch as a Software
License Key. Software License Keys are unique alpha-numerical strings created
for individual Alcatel wireless LAN switches and are only valid for the
designated wireless LAN switch.
Certain steps must be taken and criteria met in order to facilitate successfully
enabling software license features on your OmniAccess Wireless LAN switch:
1. Obtain a valid Alcatel Software License Certificate.
2. Locate the Alcatel wireless LAN switch system Serial Number (or
Supervisor Card Serial Number) of the switching platform to which you
wish to apply the software license.
3. Visit the Alcatel Software License Management Web site at
http://eservice.ind.alcatel.com/oaw/
login and use the Software License
Certificate ID and the System Serial Number to activate a Software License
Key.
4. Log in using the WebUI to the wireless LAN switch on which you wish to
apply the license. Navigate to
Maintenance > License Management, and enter
the Software License Key and click Apply.
Software License Certificates

document (printed or emailed) that states:
z The orderable part number for the license

platform for which it is valid
