License File

For systems on releases prior to Communication Manager R2.0, a license file is required for the upgrade. Remote Feature Activation (RFA) is a Web-based application that enables the creation and deployment of license files for all switches. The License File enables the switch’s software category, release, features, and capacities. License Files are created using SAP order information and/or current customer configuration information.

! CAUTION:

Without a license file, the switch will provide call processing. However, while in no-license mode, the switch displays a license-error message on display phones. After 30 days with no license, switch administration is blocked.
