At the end of the 90-day period, you must apply for a permanent license to re-enable the features permanently on the controller. Evaluation software license keys are only available in electronic form and are emailed to you.

When an evaluation period expires:

nThe controller automatically backs up the startup configuration and reboots itself at midnight (according to the system clock).

nAll permanent licenses are unaffected. The expired evaluation licensed feature is no longer available and is displayed as Expired in the WebUI.

Upgrade license—This license expands AP capacity. There are no Evaluation licenses available for Upgrade licenses.

Working with Licenses on a Multiple Controller Network

In order to configure each feature on the local controller, the master controller(s) must be licensed for each feature configured on the local Dell controllers. If present, a backup master must be licensed with the same features as the Master. Backup Dell controllers are “hot-standby”, that is, the backup controller processes AP, traffic, etc. while standing by in backup mode.

Best practices is to install the same set of feature licenses on every controller in your network.

Using Licenses

Licenses are platform independent and can be installed on any Dell controller. Installation of the feature license unlocks that feature’s functionality for the maximum capacity of the controller.

NOTE: The license limits are enforced until you reach the controller limit (see Table 27)

Table 26 lists how licenses are consumed on the Controllers.
