Managing Licenses Using CMC Web Interface
To manage the licenses using the CMC Web interface, go to Chassis Overview > Setup > Licenses.
Before importing a license, make sure to store a valid license file on the local system or on a network share that is accessible from the
CMC. The license is either embedded, or sent through an email from the Self-Service Web Portal, or from the License Key
Management tool.
The Licensing page displays the licenses that are associated to devices, or the licenses that are installed, but the device is not present in
the system. For more information about importing, exporting, deleting, or replacing a license, see the Online Help.
