For complete installation instructions, refer to the installation documentation
located on the Documentation web page:
https://www.extremenetworks.com/support/documentation/.
If you have requested an Extreme Management Center evaluation license, you
received an Entitlement ID. This Entitlement ID allows you to generate a product
evaluation license key. Refer to the instructions included with the Entitlement ID
to generate the license key. Use the key when you install the product.
Evaluation licenses are valid for 30 days. To upgrade from an evaluation license
to a purchased copy, contact your Extreme Networks Representative to
purchase the software. Refer to the Upgrading an Evaluation License section of
the Extreme Management Center Installation Guide for instructions on upgrading
your evaluation license.
IMPORTANT:
The NetSight Server service may not start after installing Extreme
Management Center version 8.0 on a system on which a Windows Server
operating system is installed. Restarting Windows corrects this issue.
The Compliance tab is available and supported by Extreme on an Extreme
Management Center engine running the Linux operating system supplied by
Extreme. Other Linux operating systems can support ExtremeCompliance
functionality, but python version 2.7 or higher must be installed. Additionally
ExtremeCompliance functionality requires the git, python2, python mysql
module, python setuptools module, and python "pygtail" module packages
be installed and related dependencies managed by the customer for their
server’s unique operating system and version.
