Generating the License Keys for a Standalone QFX Series Device

When you purchase a Junos OS software feature license for a QFX Series device, you receive an e-mail containing an authorization code for the feature license from Juniper Networks. You can use the authorization code to generate a unique license key (a combination of the authorization code and the device’s serial number) for the device, and then add the license key on the device.

Before generating the license keys for a device:

• Purchase the required licenses for the device. See Software Features That Require Licenses on the QFX Series.
• Note down the authorization code in the e-mail you received from Juniper Networks when you purchased the license.
• Determine the serial number of the device. For instructions, see Locating the Serial Number on a QFX3500 Device or Component.
