Licensing introduction
As of Release 6.8 all Telrad LTE equipment, including BreezeCOMPACT, must be loaded with
license file (Certificate) in order to be operational.
Per each shipped or already deployed specific hardware unit (Unique Serial Number) a
dedicated license will be required which will enable all the purchased features.
The license Certificate files will be supplied by Telrad
An HW without loaded certificate will not be operational but will remain manageable (locally
and remotely) for configuration and license certificate loading via the following means:
x BreezeVIEW – From the BreezeVIEW to all the network elements in a single
operation
x CLI – Directly to a single HW
The license certificate includes the following data:
x Certificate expiration date
x Licensed features that have been purchased

Licensing Prerequisites
Before upgrading BreezeCompact to Release 6.9 the following prerequisites should be verified:
* Timing - Each BreezeCOMPACT must include a working GPS module and configured with
a reachable and valid NTP server IP
* TFTP server – every HW should be configured with BreezeVIEW IP as TFTP IP address (or
if working without BreezeVIEW – the correct TFTP IP address in which the license certificates
are placed)
* License Certificates – Customer needs to receive from Telrad license certificates for the
devices that are being upgraded.
