The icom Router Management for all router models based on icom OS permits roll-outs of device firmware, configurations, security certificates and applications.

Situation

Licences must be purchased for the devices managed in the icom Router Management for productive operation. After purchasing the licence for managing a certain number of routers, you will receive an e-mail with the delivery note and the file with the licence information. You will need the following to validate the purchased licences for your On-Premises installation of the icom Router Management:

  • E-mail with delivery note and license information file

  • An On-Premises installation of the icom Router Management

  • An account ofr the Cloud version of the icom Router Management

Solution

Log in to the Cloud version of the icom Router Management, enter the activation code there and generate a license file with this. Download this licence file to your computer and upload it again to your On-Premises installation of the icom Router Management afterwards to validate the licence.

The validation of the On-Premises installation of the icom Router Management takes place in the Cloud version since INSYS has no access to On-Premises installations and cannot validate licences in them.

The following steps are required for this:

  • Receiving the e-mail with delivery note and license information file

  • Generating the licence files in the Cloud version of the icom Router Management using the activation codes from the file containing the licence information (LICENSE NUMBER column)

  • Importing the generated licence files into your On-Premises installation of the icom Router Management

Generating the licence file

  1. Log in to the Cloud version of the icom Router Management. The credentials for the Cloud version are NOT identical with the credentials of your On-Premises installation of the icom Router Management. Simply register a user account if you don’t already have one.

  2. Open the cog SettingsLicences page in the menu and click on cloud upload Import licences in the top right corner.

Troubleshooting

  • Make sure not to confuse the two versions of icom Router Management, Cloud and On-Premises. The almost identical user interface can easily make this happen. The credentials for the Cloud version are usually NOT identical with the credentials of the On-Premises installation of the icom Router Management.
