Installing A License File - Avaya 4000 Series Quick Start Configuration

Configuring the switch using ACLI

Installing a license file

This procedure is used to install a license file. If the switch is reset to default, the license file
must be reinstalled and to reenable licensed features. Resetting a switch to default removes
the license file from its storage area in NVRAM. Store the license file on a TFTP server
accessible by the switch or stack before starting the installation procedure. For switches
equipped with a USB port, you can also use a USB mass storage device to copy the license
file to the switch.
