commissioning. Following this period, the communication server switches to a
restricted operating mode (see "Restricted operating mode", page 80). The li-
cence allows the duration to be extended by 30, 60 or 90 days (Temporary Activa-
tion), or to enable definitive activation of the communication server (Definitive
Activation). It is not necessary to restart the communication server.
• Software Subscription and Software Release
Updating to a new software release requires a licence. The Software Subscrip-
tion licence entitles you to upgrade the communication server to a new soft-
ware level for a specific period. It is the prerequisite for being able to acquire an
update licence (Software Release licence) for a particular software version. With-
out a valid Software Release licence you can update the communication server to
a new software level, but after four hours of operating time it will switch over to
the restricted operating mode 8see "Restricted operating mode", page 80). The
communication server will switch back to normal operation as soon as you enter
a licence code that comprises the Software Release licence. It is not necessary to
restart the communication server.
Note:
The purchase of a new communication server also includes the Soft-
ware Subscription licence. The licence has to be activated with the aid
of the EID via the Aastra 400 activation portal on the extranet (partner
login required). The licence code issued as a result contains the appro-
priate Software Release licence (and any other licences you may have
acquired).
Aastra Intelligent Net
In an AIN a valid Software Release licence is required at all the nodes in
order to update to a new software release for the communication
server.
• Aastra 470 Expansion
This licence cancels out the restriction to the first 36 users in the numbering plan
of the Aastra 470 communication server. The maximum system capacities can be
found in Tab. 28, Tab. 30 and Tab. 31.
Aastra Intelligent Net
In an AIN with an Aastra 470 as Master and more than 36 users, an
Aastra 470 Expansion licence is required only for the Master. The Aastra
470 satellites do not need a licence, even if they have more than 36
users (except of course for offline operations lasting more than 2
hours).
