Licensing

Note
The Application Gateway delivers business applications to Nortel IP
telephones. The Application Gateway can operate with other network
devices including switches, routers, and cache engines in order to
optimize service performance and enhance user experience.
The Application Gateway installs into any network infrastructure without
requiring changes to the existing hardware or back-end software. The
Application Gateway sits in front of content servers and works with other
networking products such as cache engines, web servers, firewalls, Virtual
Private Network (VPN) solutions, and routers.
The Application Gateway can display a hierarchical application portal on
IP phones for quick access to applications. Design Studio is a PC-based
application that you use to create transformation rules for Web
applications, modify the Application Menu that displays on devices, and
upload changes to an Application Gateway.
Refer to the Application Gateway Release Notes for additional licensing
information specific to IP phones.
Application Gateway Software is enabled by user licenses which allow use
of the Server Software in increments defined by a license. A license enables
the Application Gateway to deliver applications to a user.
Each IP phone must have a license. A license is assigned to an IP phone's
MAC address the first time that the phone contacts the Application
Gateway. When a phone registers with the Application Gateway, the
number of available licenses decreases by one. Thus, if you purchase 100
IP phone licenses, 100 of your phones can register with the Application
Gateway. Once all allowed licenses are associated with a phone,
additional connection attempts are denied.
The Application Gateway administrator can free a license by changing the
status of an phone to unlicensed. A phone's status can be later changed
back to licensed, if needed.
Refer to the Application Gateway Release Notes for capacity information.
