Adding Licenses; Checking The Dongle Serial Number - Avaya DECT R4 Installation Manual

8.2 Adding Licenses

Each IP DECT extension requires an Avaya IP Endpoint license. This applies even if the handset subscribed to the IP DECT
R4 system is not an Avaya phone.
Phones without a license will still be able to subscribe and register but will be limited to making emergency calls only (calls
that match an IP Office Dial Emergency short code). The associated user will be treated as if logged off. If a license
becomes available, it will be assigned to any unlicensed DECT handsets first and then to any other unlicensed Avaya IP
phone in the order that the phones registered.
· Avaya IP Endpoint Licenses
Licenses are added to the IP Office configuration and are based on the unique feature key serial number of the
System SD card fitted to the IP500v2 control unit.
· Phones can be licensed up to the 384 extension limit for all phone extensions of any type.
· For each IP500 VCM 32 or IP500 VCM 64 card installed in the system also enables 12 Avaya IP endpoints
without requiring licenses.
· For each IP400 VCM card installed in the system, each VCM channel supported by the card allows support
for 3 Avaya IP phones.
· The VCM channels provided by IP500 Combination cards do not enable any Avaya IP endpoints.
· Licenses are normally automatically assigned to extensions in order of registration. However, existing
extensions can be configured to
when newly added extensions manage to register first following a system reboot.

8.2.1 Checking the Dongle Serial Number

IP Office licenses are issued against a unique dongle serial number. For IP500 control units, the number is unique to the
smart card fitted to the control unit. For IP500v2 control units, the number is unique to the System SD card fitted to the
system. For any licenses entered into the system configuration to be valid, they must be licenses issued against that serial
number.
