NetSet utility to remove the 3101 Basic Telephone. Since that telephone
was using a Group 2 license, removing the telephone makes a Group 2
license available.
Group License Notes
To view the number of Group Licenses you have installed on your
system open the License Summary page in the NBX NetSet utility,
Licensing and Upgrades > Licenses. To view how the number of Group
Licenses have been allocated, including licenses loaned to different
groups, open the License Usage Report in the NBX NetSet utility,
Licensing and Upgrades > Licenses > Usage Report.
To achieve the best licensing configuration, you should always add
license keys to the system (Licensing and Upgrades > Licenses > Add
License) before you add devices.
If you are removing a telephone to manually readjust licenses, you
should first make sure that Auto Discover Telephones is disabled
(System-wide Settings > Auto Discovery) to ensure that the telephone
is not automatically added to the system again.
A basic V3000 system includes fifteen Group 2 Licenses.
Group Licensing is not available on systems prior to R5.0. Licensed
devices that are installed on a system at the time that system is upgraded
to R5.0 will have their licenses converted to appropriate License Groups:
3101 and 3101SP Basic Telephone licenses convert to Group 1
Licenses
3102 Business Telephone licenses convert to Group 2 Licenses
3105 Attendant Console licenses convert to Group 2 Licenses
If you reboot an R5.0 or R6.0 system to an earlier software version, these
license conversions are in effect:
Device licenses that were converted to Group 1 and Group 2 licenses
during the upgrade to R5.0 are active as 3101, 3102 and 3105
licenses.
Group 1 licenses applied after the upgrade to R5.0 are converted to
3101 licenses.
Group 2 licenses applied after the upgrade to R5.0 are converted to
3102 licenses.
