21. Licenses
Many solutions, applications and features on IP Office systems are licensed and only operate when a valid
license is detected. This includes features within IP Office applications running on PCs connected to the IP Office
system.
Licenses are 32 character strings derived from a unique serial number for the IP Office system which will be
using the license. The unique serial number is taken from the Feature Key device fitted to the IP Office system.
· IP500 Smart Card Feature Key
For IP500 IP Office control units, the serial number is based on the Smart Card Feature Key fitted to the
control unit. A Smart Card Feature key is mandatory on all IP500 control units for correct operation of
the unit regardless of whether the unit is using any licenses.
· IP500 V2 SD Card Feature Key
For IP500 V2 control units, the serial number is based on the System SD Card Feature Key fitted to the
control unit. A System SD Card Feature key is mandatory on all IP500 V2 control units for correct
operation of the unit regardless of whether the unit is using any licenses.
There are three types of System SD card available, which define the default operating mode:
· System SD CARD A-LAW
· System SD CARD MU-LAW
· System SD CARD PARTNER
· System SD CARD NORSTAR
For licensing each IP Office control unit must have its own Feature Key and licenses. The Feature Key
associated with one IP Office system cannot be used to validate the licenses of another IP Office system.
Since licenses are based on the serial number of the Feature Key, they cannot be moved between systems with
different Feature Keys. If a Feature Key is lost the license will become invalid. If it is necessary to exchange a
Feature Key due damage or upgrade then the existing key and licenses can be exchanged (license swap)
through the Avaya Direct International (ADI) website (https://adi.avaya.com).
Some licenses enable a number of ports, channels or users. Depending on the particular license, each
supported instance may be consumed either when it is configured for use or alternatively when it is actually
being used. When no further instances of a license are available, further use of the licensed feature is not
allowed.
Typically for port, channel and user licenses, multiple licenses can be added to give a higher number of
supported ports, channels or users. However licenses above the capacity supported by the particular IP Office
control unit will not work.
The following sections detail the current individual IP Office licenses. The actual licenses are indicated by a
icon and the following information:
· License Name in IP Office Configuration: Avaya orderable part name (Material Code)
