Node locked licensing

The Avaya 2050 IP Softphone Release 4.0 supports the node locked license solution, which
allows a licence to be associated with a specific instance of the application based on the
Hardware ID or the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the network interface where the
client is installed. This solution eliminates the need for a license server to be located on the
network. The embedded server of the phone uses the locally stored license file to obtain the
number of tokens required to activate the features. The license file is generated by the KRS
and is loaded to the phone using the provisioning mechanism. The license file contains the
following types of tokens:
• SRS (Standard) tokens—expire when the firmware or software is installed.
The licensing feature also controls access to the call server. The IP Softphone validates the
stored license file.
