You can order the desired functionality from the factory, using the appropriate model of
the desired product. If you order licensing from the factory, the switch arrives packaged
with a certificate that contains the unique license key(s), and instructions for enabling
the correct functionality on the switch. The certificate is typically packaged with the
switch documentation. Once the license key is entered, it should not be necessary to
enter the information again. However, we recommend keeping the certificate for your
records.
You may upgrade the router licensing of an existing product by purchasing a voucher
for the desired product and functionality. Please contact your supplier to purchase a
voucher.
Once received, the voucher contains information and instructions on obtaining a license
key for the switch using the Extreme Networks Support website at:
http://www.extremenetworks.com/extreme/support/upgrade.htm
or by phoning Extreme Networks Technical Support at:
