The help file is easily modified, for example to provide detailed site-specific
support information. The mark-up language specification and preprocessor
program are available from your authorised distributor or reseller.

Also, typing a question mark “?” at the end of a partially completed command
displays a list of the parameters that may follow the current command line,
with the minimum abbreviations in uppercase letters (see Figure 1 on page 20).
The current command line is then re-displayed, ready for further input.

Enabling Special Feature Licences

You must enable the special feature licence you have purchased before you can
use the licenced features. You will need the password provided by your
authorised distributor or reseller. The advanced upgrade licence and password
are different from the standard software release licence and password. The
licence cannot be transferred from one router to another.

For software features that require a special feature licence see “Special Feature
Licences
” on page 12
.

You must order passwords for special feature licences from your authorised distributor
or reseller. You must specify the special feature licence bundle and the serial number(s)
of the router(s) on which the special feature licences are to be enabled.

The password for a special feature licence is a string of at least 16 hexadecimal
characters. This password encodes the special feature, or features, covered by
the license, and the router serial number. The password information is stored in
the router’s FLASH memory.

To enable or disable a special feature licence, enter the commands:

ENABLE FEATURE=feature PASSWORD=password

DISABLE FEATURE=feature

To list the current special feature licences, enter the command:

SHOW FEATURE[={featurename|index}]
