4.6.2 Applying a License File
Software options—if available for your product—must be activated by applying a license file
(OPT-xyz):
Typically, NetClock units are shipped with the license file pre-installed, reflecting the system con
figuration as ordered. If, however, a feature is to be activated after delivery of the NetClock
unit, please contact your local Spectracom Sales Office first to have a license file generated.
License files are archive files with a tar.gz extension. One license file may contain multiple
licenses for multiple products.
To apply the license file, you need to upload it into your NetClock unit and install it:
1.
Save the license file license.tar.gz to a location on your PC (which needs to be
connected to the same network NetClock is.)
2.
Open the NetClock WebUI, and navigate to Tools > Upgrade/Backup:
3.
In the Actions panel, click Apply License File.
