Installing Cisco Access Registrar 4.2 Licenses

You must have a license in a directory on the Cisco AR machine before you attempt to install Cisco AR
software. If you have not installed the Cisco AR license file before beginning the software installation,
the installation process will fail.
You can store the Cisco AR license file in any directory on the Cisco AR machine. During the installation
process, you will be asked the location of the license file, and the installation process will copy the
license file to the /opt/CSCOar/license directory, or $INSTALL/license if you are not using the default
installation location.
The license file might have the name ciscoar.lic, but it can be any filename with the suffix .lic. To install
the Cisco AR license file, you can copy and paste the text into a file, or you can simply save the file you
receive in e-mail to an accessible directory.

Adding Additional Cisco Access Registrar 4.2 Licenses

If you add additional licenses, you can open the file in /opt/CSCOar/license and add additional lines to
the license file, or you can create an additional license file to hold the new lines. If you add a new file,
remember to give it a .lic suffix. You must restart the Cisco AR server for the new license to take effect.
To restart the Cisco AR server, enter the following on the server command line:
