Restart the device with a save-to-flash for your settings to take effect. After the device restarts, it connects with OVOC and OVOC-related information is displayed in the read-only fields: |
|
●
|
'Connection with OVOC': Displays the device's connectivity status with OVOC: |
|
◆
|
"Connected": The device is connected to OVOC. |
|
◆
|
"Disconnected" The device has disconnected from OVOC due to problems with the network (HTTPS TCP connection). |
|
◆
|
"Not Connected": The device is not connected to OVOC. |

|
'OVOC IP Address': Displays the IP address of OVOC. |
|
●
|
'OVOC Product Key': Displays the Product Key of OVOC that is providing the Floating or Flex License. |
Once you enable the Floating or Flex License, OVOC initiates a connection with the device. In other words, you don't configure the address of OVOC. The device connects with OVOC over SNMP and an SNMP manager is automatically added to the SNMP Trap Destinations table for this connection (see Configuring SNMP Trap Destinations with IP Addresses).
The status of the Floating License or Flex License is also displayed on the top bar of the License Key page, as shown below (e.g., Flex License mode):
