IP Gateway Trunk Licensing

The Inter-Tel 5000 platform requires "IP Gateway Trunk License," part number 840.0234, for the
use of the following two types of IP gateway trunks. One license is required for each trunk to be used.
• Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP)
• Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)

Software Feature Licensing

Software features, which customers can purchase to enhance their systems, are controlled by
licensing through the Application Management Center (AMC). This section discusses the process
used for licensing software features and the storage of multiple licenses on a system.

General

Because features are controlled through licensing, the system database cannot be restored with
software features that have not been licensed by Mitel. If an attempt is made to Restore a database
that has more software features than the license reflects, a warning message is displayed before
the Restore command is executed. When this message displays, the Restore action must be
cancelled. For details, refer to the MiVoice Office 250 Features and Programming Guide.
Because the software license determines the features that can be enabled, changes cannot be
made directly in DB Programming. The process to add software features involves purchasing the
license, building the licence from the AMC, generating the license, downloading it to the field PC,
and installing it in the system from the PC through DB Programming. For complete procedural
instructions, refer to the MiVoice Office 250 Features and Programming Guide.

Number of Licenses

The system stores up to five different licenses, each of which is unique based on the system version.
For example, only one v1.0 software license can be stored on the Processor Module. If a new license
that matches the version number of an existing license is loaded, the new license automatically
overwrites the existing license.
In addition, if five licenses are currently stored and a sixth license is saved, the oldest license, based
on the date and time the license was created, is overwritten. If, however, the oldest license is currently
in use, the next oldest license is overwritten. In addition, because each license is unique, only one
license for each version number can be stored at any time.
