Installing License Key through Web Interface

You can install the local License Key through the Web interface, using one of the following methods:

Installing a License Key file (see Installing a License Key File)
Installing a License Key string (see Installing a License Key String)

When you initially upload the License Key before installing it, the License Key page uses color-coded icons to indicate the changes between the currently installed License Key and the new License Key that you loaded. The following table describes these color codes:

Color-Coded Icons for Newly Loaded License Key

After you install the License Key with a device restart, the icons are no longer displayed and the License Key page displays only the features and capacity that are licensed by the new License Key.
