Licensing Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Software
Licensing Evaluation Software
You can use downloaded software for 5 days before you must license it. Licensing the software enables
you to evaluate it for 60 more days. If you do not license the download, you will be unable to use it after
the fifth day. If you have a resilient installation, you need to license both the Publisher and the
Subscriber.
Note You cannot extend the 60-day evaluation period or apply a second 60-day evaluation license. If you need
more evaluation time, you must reinstall your system from the operating system level, and then apply a
new 60-day evaluation license.
To license the evaluation software for a server, do the following:
Step 1 Use your internet browser to go to http://www.cisco.com/go/ac.
Step 2 Enter your User Name and Password and then click Log In.
Step 3 In the navigation bar, click ACTIVATE EVALUATION SOFTWARE.
Step 4 Select your Reseller, then select your Customer, and then select your Customer Site.
Note If your reseller, customer or site are not available, click the control to add them.
Step 5 Select the Version and the Product that you have installed, and then click Next.
Step 6 Enter your Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Registration Code.
Note To find your Registration Code, log into Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Administration and
choose Help > Licensing.
A registration (.RGF) file is e-mailed to you, and a message to this effect is displayed in the web page.
Step 7 Open the email and save the registration file to a location that can be browsed by the Cisco Unified
Attendant Console Advanced server.
Step 8 Log into Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Administration and choose Help > Licensing.
Step 9 In the License Management page, select Registration File.
Step 10 Click Browse and then open the Registration File.
Step 11 Click Submit to complete license activation.
Step 12 Stop and then restart the services, as described in “Service Management” on page 6-10.
If you have a resilient server installation, remember to license the Subscriber as well as the Publisher.
Licensing Purchased Software
You can purchase the software at any time in the evaluation periods, giving you unlimited use. When you
purchase the software Cisco provide you with a 27-digit license activation code (LAC). After activating
the software, you cannot revert to the trial version.
