Licensing of V5.2
The licensing of V5.2 is based on the CSP chassis serial number.
To activate V5.2, you must use a Product License Key, which Cantata provides when you purchase the Product License. The key is unique and encrypted.
For details, refer to Downloading License Keys to the CSP in the Licensing Overview chapter in the Developer’s Guide: Overview and the Product License Download message (0x0079) in the API Reference.
You must download the license key each time new system software is downloaded or when you power cycle.
