Installing a Pilot License

After you configure the SAE local parameters, you can install a pilot license in the directory with either the instlic command (recommended) or SDX Admin.

Installing a Pilot License by Using the instlic Command

To install the pilot license:

1. Save the pilot license provided by Juniper Networks into a text file in the desired directory.
2. Issue the instlic command.

/opt/UMC/sae/etc/instlic

This command has the following syntax; see Table 18 for details on the syntax:

instlic [-h <ldapHost>] [-D <bindDN>] [-b <baseDN>] 

[-w <password>] [-W ] <fileName>

The installation script reads the license from the specified file.

The following sample command specifies a nondefault host address and base DN, prompts you for the password, and establishes the license contained in the pilot.txt file as the license:

/opt/UMC/sae/etc/instlic -h 10.25.2.4 

-D cn=umcadmin,o=SDXbase -W pilot.txt

Installing a Pilot License by Using SDX Admin

To install the pilot license:

1. Start SDX Admin.
   

   NOTE: See Chapter 13, Using SDX Admin, for information about starting and using SDX Admin.

   
   
2. In the navigation pane of SDX Admin, expand the Management folder, right-click Licenses, select New, and click License.

The New License dialog box appears.

3. Enter the host ID value that you determined in the section Pilot License, and click OK.

The value then appears in the HostID field of the Main tab of the License pane.

4. Enter the license provided by Juniper Networks in the SSP License field of the Main tab of the License pane, and click Save.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for each host with its related host ID and license.
