Characteristics of the licensing framework
The following list describes the characteristics of the licensing framework on the IP
Deskphone.
• The embedded server relies on a real time clock to calculate when a token expires
• The embedded server (node-locked) enables the license server to execute on the IP
Deskphone. The IP Deskphone obtains tokens by calling the server locally.
• The license file is installed on the IP Deskphone through the provisioning server or TFTP
server.
• The IP Deskphone does not have an internal real-time clock. The time of day is obtained
from the Call Server that the IP Deskphone is registered to on the network.
• The license file contains only one type of token because the IP Deskphone only uses one
type at a time.
• The administrator must enter the IP Deskphone system ID directly into the Keycode
Retrieval System (KRS).
• A Node Locked license file is keyed for the IP Deskphone so that the license is only valid
on a specific IP Deskphone.
• A Network Locked license file can be installed on a limited number of IP Deskphones at
a given site.
• The system ID is the MAC of the IP Deskphone.
• When the IP Deskphone is connected to an Avaya server, the IP Deskphone gets an
additional token.
