Obtaining A License Voucher; Enabling And Verifying Licenses; Security Licensing - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Guide Manual

Obtaining a License Voucher

You can order the desired functionality from the factory, using the appropriate model of the desired
product. If you order licensing from the factory, the license arrives in a separate package from the
switch. After the license key is installed, it should not be necessary to enter the information again.
However, Extreme Networks recommends keeping the certificate for your records.
You can obtain a regular license; you cannot downgrade licenses. The software key contains all the
necessary information on the license level.
You can upgrade the license of an existing product by purchasing a license voucher from Extreme
Networks. Please contact your supplier to purchase a voucher.
The voucher contains information and instructions on obtaining a license key for the switch using the
Extreme Networks Support website at:

or by phoning Extreme Networks Technical Support at:

Enabling and Verifying Licenses

the following command:

Security Licensing

Certain additional ExtremeWare XOS features, such as the use of SSH2 encryption, may be under
United States export restriction control. Extreme Networks ships these security features in a disabled
state. You can obtain information on enabling these features at no charge from Extreme Networks.
The SSH2 feature is in a separate, loadable software module, which must be installed on the Extreme
Networks switches.
