Apply Your License

Apply Your License in Apstra

By now, you should have received your activation code and activated your license from the Juniper Agile Licensing Portal (see the Juniper Licensing User Guide for activation instructions). You now need to apply your license in the Apstra GUI.

To apply your license:

  1. Login to the Apstra GUI using the credentials you set when you first configured the Apstra server.
  2. From the left navigation menu, select Platform > Licenses and click Create License.
  3. Copy your license key into the License Key text box and click Create.
  4. Verify your license.
    If the license was applied successfully, the Feature Name displays Apstra Premium.

Restart the Flow Services

After you apply your license in Apstra, restart your flow services so that the services can pick up the license.
Note: You can restart the flow services using the Apstra Server Configuration tool 8 Restart the Apstra Flow Service (flowcoll). Alternatively, you can restart the services through SSH.

To restart the flow services using SSH:

  1. SSH to the Flow VM. The default login credentials are: apstra/apstra.
  2. Restart the collector service.
    sudo systemctl restart flowcoll
  3. Restart the OpenSearch service.
    sudo systemctl restart opensearch
  4. Restart the OpenSearch dashboard service.
    sudo systemctl restart opensearch-dashboards
  5. Verify your license.
    Enter the IP address of your VM by accessing: http://<flow-vm-ip>:8080/metrics.
    If you successfully applied your license, the license_units value will read 64000(4x16000).
