1.5 Licensing
The flexible licensing concept of OpenScape Business allows customers to adapt the functional
scope to their own requirements through licenses. All OpenScape Business communication
systems (X3/X5/X8 and OpenScape Business S) are subject to this licensing concept. Phones,
UC clients, UC functions and system-wide features can thus be unlocked according to individual
customer needs. Uniform licenses are used for all OpenScape Business communication systems.
OpenScape Business can be expanded or equipped with additional features at a later date by
purchasing additional licenses.
All licenses are always bound to the basic license of the communication system and enable the
use of the purchased features for the associated version of OpenScape Business.
90-day evaluation licenses can be ordered to allow customers to test and evaluate special
features.
Activation Period
The activation period begins when the WBM is accessed for the first time. After the initial
installation of the communication system, the license activation must be completed within a
period of 30 days (activation period). During the activation period, the product is fully functional,
and the maximum number of licenses are available for use.
If the licensing is not completed before the activation period expires, the functionality of the
communication system will be severely restricted. The system also remains in this restricted state
when the initial installation is carried out only with Manager E, since this does not start the
activation period.
License Structure
The licenses for the communication system are structured as follows:
– A basic license permanently activates the software of the communication system. This basic
license is also required for activating all other licenses.
– Station licenses activate the phones for external voice communications.
– User-oriented licenses to unlock specific user features.
– System licenses to unlock general system-wide features.
Migration
Existing HiPath 3000 V9 customers are being offered an upgrade license for license migration.
License migration ensures investment protection for customers through continued use of
telephones and voice features.
1.5.1 Licensing Procedure
Licensing is handled via the centralized OpenScape License Management procedure for the
administration and activation of licenses. This ensures that a customer can use precisely the
system configuration or features for which that customer has acquired the appropriate licenses
(usage rights).
The Web Based Management (WBM) provides wizard-driven functions for the customer
registration, license activation and the license assignments for standalone systems and systems
in an OpenScape Business internetwork. Licensing with Manager E is not possible.
Steps for Successful Licensing
1. Configuration of the system within the activation period
2. Registration of customer data
3. License activation: Binding of purchased licenses to the customer system
4. License assignment: assignment of licenses to the individual OpenScape Business users
Customer Registration
Your data will be collected as part of this registration and the subsequent system licensing by
Siemens Enterprise Communications GmbH & Co KG.
