Note
ExtremeCloud IQ – Site Engine requires an ExtremeCloud IQ Pilot license. It is not
compatible with ExtremeCloud IQ Connect accounts.
Each device managed by ExtremeCloud IQ - Site Engine requires one of these three
options:
- ExtremeCloud IQ Pilot license
- ExtremeCloud IQ Navigator license
- No License
ExtremeCloud IQ – Site Engine can be deployed in two ways:
- Connected
mode: In Connected mode, ExtremeCloud IQ is the licensing authority for
ExtremeCloud IQ - Site Engine. As devices are added to ExtremeCloud IQ - Site
Engine, they are onboarded to ExtremeCloud IQ, with a request for a license of the
appropriate tier (ExtremeCloud IQ Navigator, ExtremeCloud IQ Pilot or No License)
that each device requires. 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, and
uses the license file to determine if you meet or exceed the license limits for each
license type. This ensures that ExtremeCloud IQ - Site Engine does not require an
Internet connection to verify how many licenses are available.
