Activating Manually

If you have a license file provided by Wavelink or problems with the automatic activation, activate your license manually. To activate a license manually, use the Wavelink activation Web site to generate a license file, and then import the license using the Avalanche Console.

To generate a license file, you will need the following information:

• Node lock for the system. To find the node lock, load the Web Console and click Tools > Support and Licensing. The nodelock is listed above the Installed Licenses panel as Node Lock [XXXXXXXX].

• Product license code. This information comes from the e-mail you receive from Wavelink when you purchase Avalanche.

To generate a license file:

1  Open a Web browser and navigate to http://www.wavelink.com/activation.

2  Enter the Hardware Node Lock and the License Key in the text boxes.

3  Click Activate button to activate license.

The Wavelink activation server verifies the information that you entered and provides you a link to download a wavelink.lic file if your node lock and license key are valid.

4  Click on the link and change the Save As type to All Files.

5  Download the file to desired location.

6  Move the wavelink.lic file to the computer with Avalanche installed.

If you have a wavelink.lic file from an older installation, you must contact Wavelink Support to reissue the license before you can import it into Avalanche 6.0.

To import a license:

1  From the Web Console, click Tools > Support and Licensing.

2  In the Installed Licenses panel, click Add License. The Add License dialog box appears.

3  Select the License File option and then click the Import button that appears.

4  In the Open dialog box, navigate to the license file and click Open. The license file is installed.

5  Click Save to save the licenses to your system. The licenses will be imported and displayed in the Installed Licenses panel.
