LICENSE MANAGER OVERVIEW
Some of the features on the OmniAccess 5740 USG are license enabled. Hence
they require a license to function. These licenses regulate the availability of a
licensable feature at all times. These licenses are contained in a set of license
files that will describe the features authorized to run on the OmniAccess 5740
USG. License Manager helps in managing these license files.
Note: The license file is in XML format. Based on the user requirement, Alcatel-Lucent
would generate an appropriate license.
