There are two deployment modes for ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine:
Connected mode:ExtremeCloud IQ is the licensing authority for ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine. As you add devices to ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine,
they onboard to ExtremeCloud IQ, with a request for an appropriate
license. ExtremeCloud IQ activates the available license from the
license pool, and determines if you meet or exceed the license limits for each
license type. All ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engines connected to the same ExtremeCloud IQ account share the same license pool. The managed device
requires one license, depending on the number of ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engines
managing that device.
Air gap mode:ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine uses licenses stored locally in a license file to
determine whether you meet or exceed the license limits for each license type. This
mode ensures that ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine does not require an Internet
connection to verify how many licenses are available.
