Network Discovery

You can use Network Discovery with this default license temporarily, or you can go ahead and request the license that will give you the full functionality you purchased, as well as the most up-to-date software components.

Maintenance contracts entitling you to periods of support from Peregrine Systems Customer Support are also distributed in the form of licenses.

Evaluation License

If a Peregrine appliance in your network has an expired evaluation license, it cannot be aggregated. If you have more than one Peregrine appliance in your network, make sure you update your licenses for all appliances.

Disaster Recovery License

If your appliance breaks, you can get a disaster recovery license (at no cost). This license will allow you to backup your data to a new appliance. Then, you will be able to use the new appliance for up to 30 days, while your old appliance is being fixed. You can restore your data a total of 3 times while using this license.

Basic Discovery License

Basic Discovery means that Network Discovery will only discover devices on your network. Network Discovery will not monitor those devices.

If you do not have a Basic Discovery license, you can still change Network Discovery to operate this way. To do so, change the “Basic Discovery” setting at Administration > System preferences > Appliance services > Force Basic Discovery mode.
