License Overview

A license can control the statuses of signature databases and time sensitive features:

z

The license controls whether to upgrade the signature databases. A signature database records

the attack signature and virus signatures that can be recognized by the device; therefore, for the

security device, its signature database must be upgraded in real time. When the license of the

signature database is expired, you cannot simply upgrade the signature database and need to

recharge to obtain a new license, and then upgrade the signature database.

z

The license controls the lifetime of time-sensitive features. When the license of a feature is expired,

you cannot use the feature and need to recharge to obtain a new license. Meanwhile, the device

periodically accesses the website http://www.h3c.com.cn to check the expiration times of features.

If the device cannot access this website, all time-sensitive features are not available.

The license module allows you to view the license information, import license and export license.

To apply for a new License, contact H3C technical support staff.
