Licensing
You must have licenses to download and use Juniper Networks CSO. When you order licenses, you receive the information that you need to download and use CSO. If you did not order the licenses, contact your account team or Juniper Networks Customer Care for assistance.
The CSO licensing model depends on whether you use a centralized or distributed deployment:
For a centralized deployment, you need licenses for Network Service Orchestrator and for Contrail Cloud Platform. You can either purchase both types of licenses in one Cloud CPE MANO package or you can purchase each type of license individually.
You also need licenses for:
Junos OS software for the MX Series router, EX Series switch, and QFX Series switch in the Contrail Cloud Platform.
VNFs that you deploy.
(Optional) Licenses for Junos Space Network Management Platform, if you deploy VNFs that require this EMS.
For a distributed deployment, you need licenses for Network Service Orchestrator and for Network Service Controller.
You also need licenses for the following items, depending on which you use in your deployment.
The vSRX application that provides the security gateway for the NFX250 device or the vSRX implementation used as a CPE device.
VNFs that you deploy.
Junos OS software for the MX Series router, including licenses for subscribers.
Junos OS software for the SRX Services Gateways.
For a combined centralized and distributed deployment, you need licenses for components for both types of deployment.
