Manage License Manually

Assign licenses manually to have the best control on how your licenses are utilized within your AirDefense monitored network. Use the License Configuration screen to manually assign licenses to your devices.

To manually assign licenses:

Select the

icon that is available for all licenses except the ADSP Platform and Central Management licenses.

The License Assignment dialog displays.

The following information is displayed.


Field	Description
Feature Name	Displays the feature name for which this license detail is displayed.
Select License Order	Use this drop-down list to select a specific license order from which to apply licenses.
Validity	This area displays details about the validity of this license.

The following area displays additional details about the license order selected in the Select License Order field.


Field	Description
Assigned	The number of licenses assigned to devices out of the total licenses in this order.
Available	The number of licenses that are remaining after being assigned, and are thus available for use. For Unlimited licenses, the field will display `Unlimited`.
Reassignments	Displays the number of reassignments that are left for this license order. AirDefense allows you to reassign your licenses between devices a fixed number of times. Every time a license is reassigned, this value is reduced. Once this value reaches zero (0), you cannot reassign any more licenses. A license is considered reassigned when it is removed from a device and applied to another device. When such a activity is performed, AirDefense reduces the count of reassignments that are available for the selected license order.
Total	Displays the total number of licenses purchased in this license order. Displays `Unlimited` for Unlimited licenses.

Use the Select the devices to set the license pane within this dialog to drill down to the individual devices that you wish to apply the license. Use the icon next to each level to expand it.
