License keys are encoded form of supported configuration or features. License keys verify
ownership of the Management application software as well as determine the maximum port count
allowed or any additional features that you receive as part of the license.

The web client is available for Professional, Professional Plus and Enterprise editions; however, the
Professional edition does not support Reports and all Performance widgets in the dashboard do
not contain data. The web client is not supported for SMI Agent only installation.

NOTE

If you exceed the maximum port count for your version, software functionality is impacted and you
must reduce the port count through discovery or contact your vendor to purchase an additional
license for your version.

If your License expires or changes, an error message displays.
