    How to fix IXIA XGS2-HS licensing issues due to time discrepancies?
    • D
      Dawn BarberAug 2, 2025
      To resolve licensing issues on your IXIA Control Unit due to invalid licenses, configure the XGS2 to use NTP. This will synchronize the time. If NTP is unavailable, you can manually manage the time settings. The cause of this issue is time discrepancies between the network and the XGS2 system, which invalidates the installed licenses.
