Assigning Certificates
A certificate links identity information with a public key enclosed in the certificate.
AAP Adoptions The Device column Lists the total number of AAP adoptions made by the controller or service platform.
If the installed license count is 10 APs and the number of AAP adoptions is 5, 5 additional AAPs can still
be adopted under the terms of the license. The total number of AAPs adoptions varies by platform, as
well as the terms of the license. The Cluster column lists the total number of AAP adoptions made by
the cluster membership (all members). If the installed license count is 100 APs and the number of AAP
adoptions is 50, 50 additional AAPs can still be adopted under the terms of the AAP licenses, pooled by
the cluster members.
AAP Licenses The Device column lists the number of AAPs available for adoption under the restrictions of the license.
This number applies to dependent mode adaptive AAPs only, and not independent mode AAPs. The
Cluster column lists the number of AAPs available for adoption by cluster members under the
restrictions of the licenses, as pooled amongst the cluster members.
AAP Lent Licenses Lent licenses are the total number of AAP licenses the NOC controller lends (if needed) to its site
controllers so site controllers can adopt adaptive APs in excess of its own installed AAP license count.
AAP lent licenses can be non-zero only in controllers currently configured as the NOC (NOC controller).
Lent Licenses is always zero in controllers configured as the site (site controller).
AAP Borrowed Licenses Borrowed licenses are the total number of AAP licenses borrowed by the site controller from the NOC
controller (NOC controllers if a NOC controller is in a cluster). AAP borrowed licenses are always zero in
the NOC controller. AAP borrowed licenses can be non-zero only on site controllers.
AAP Total Licenses Lists the cumulative number of both Device and Cluster AAP licenses supported by the listed controller
or service platform.
Advanced Security Enter the Brocade provided license key required to install the Role Based Firewall feature and increase
the number of IPSec VPN tunnels. The number of IPSec tunnels varies by platform.
Advanced WIPS
Licenses Enter the Brocade provided license key required to install Advanced WIPS for client terminations and

Analytics Licenses Enter the Brocade provided license key required to install Analytics (an enhanced statistical
management tool) for NX4500, NX6500 and NX9000 series service platforms.
Smart Cache Licenses Enter the Brocade provided license key required to install the Smart Cache feature on a supported
service platform. Smart Caching is used on NX4500 and NX6500 series service platforms to
temporarily store frequently accessed Web content (Web pages, graphics, audio and video files etc.) on
network infrastructure devices. When this content is requested, its retrieved from a local content cache
and not from the origin server. Smart caching results in reduced bandwidth usage, lower latency
periods and reduced data transfers from the origin servers. Both forward caching and transparent
caching are supported.
