• Feature keys are only valid for a director with a specific serial number. They cannot be
interchanged between directors. If an error stating Invalid serial number is
displayed, verify that you have entered the feature key that was assigned to the director. To
verify, check the serial number of the director through the Switch Properties dialog box and
compare it to the serial number listed in the documentation provided with your feature key.
• Enter the key exactly as printed in the documentation that you received for the feature. If an
error stating Invalid feature key is displayed, verify that you have entered the feature
key correctly.
The Enable Feature Key dialog box is displayed as shown in Figure 57 with a warning stating
that this action will override the current set of features on the director. The left column of the
dialog box displays a list of features that are active on the director. The list on the right is a set of
features that come with the new feature key. All of the features that are active are included in the
new feature list.

features will be removed from the director.
