Uploading a Device License File

To upload a device license file:

  1. Click Administration > Licenses > Device Licenses.

    The Device License Files page appears.

  2. Click the plus icon (+).

    The Add Device Licenses page appears.

  3. In the Device License File field, specify the location of the license file that you want to upload. Alternatively, you can click Browse to navigate to the file location and select the file.

    Note:

    Each license file should contain only one license key.

  4. (Optional) From the Tenants list, select the tenant to which you want to associate the license file.

    If you associate a license with a tenant, you can apply that license only to devices that belong to that tenant. If a tenant has licenses associated with the tenant, when a device is activated during ZTP, a matching license from the licenses associated with the tenant is downloaded to the device.

    You can apply a license that is not associated with a tenant to any device of any of the tenants. During ZTP, when a device is activated for a tenant that does not have any license associated with it, a matching license from the licenses that are not associated with any tenant is downloaded to the device.

  5. In the Description field, enter a description for the license that you want to upload.

  6. Click OK to upload the license.

    You are returned to the Device License Files page.

Editing a Device License Entry

You can edit a device license entry to modify the description for the license file.

  1. Click Administration > Licenses > Device Licenses.

    The Device License Files page appears.

  2. Select the device license for which you want to modify the description and click the Edit icon.

    The Update Device License page appears.

  3. Update the description.

  4. Click OK to save the changes. To discard the changes, click Cancel.

  1. Click Administration > Licenses > Device Licenses.

    The Device License Files page appears.

  2. Select the device license that you want to delete and click the delete icon.

  3. In the confirmation message, click Yes to delete the device license.

    To cancel the delete operation, click No.

Pushing a License to Devices

You can push licenses on to devices from the Licenses page of the Administration portal. If a license is associated with a tenant, you can push that license only to devices associated with that tenant. However, if no tenant is associated with a license, you can apply the license to any device that belongs to any tenant.

When a license is applied to a device, the license information is added to the device object. When the same license is pushed to the device again, a device-level error message is created. Similarly, if a pushed license does not match a device, the device generates an error message.

To push a license to a device:

  1. Click Administration > Licenses > Device Licenses.

    The License Files page appears.

  2. Select the license that you want to push to a device.

    The Push License button is enabled.

  3. Click the Push License button.

    The Push License page appears.

  4. From the Tenants list, select the tenant associated with the site and devices to which you want to apply the license.

    Note:

    If the license has already been associated with a tenant, you cannot select a different tenant. You can apply the license only to the sites and devices associated with the tenant.

    Sites and devices associated with the selected tenant appear.

  5. Select the sites and devices to which you want to apply the license and click Push Licenses.

    CSO applies the license to the selected devices.
