Chapter 13: Managing license files with
PLDS
PLDS Overview
The Avaya Product Licensing and Delivery System (PLDS) provides customers, Avaya
Partners, distributors, and Avaya Associates with tools for managing license entitlements and
electronic delivery of software and related license files. Using PLDS, you can perform
operations such as license activations, license upgrades, license moves, and software
downloads.
Installation software packages for Avaya products are available as ISO files on PLDS. Users
can download the ISO images to a PC, and choose to either burn a DVD for installation or
transfer the ISO file to the target server for installation.
Note:
The B5800 Branch Gateway R6.2 administrator applications are provided on DVD. They
are not available for download from PLDS. However, once available, you will be able to
download B5800 Branch Gateway R6.2 Service Packs from PLDS.
You can check PLDS to determine if a later service pack or software release is available. If
updates do exist, see the appropriate upgrade procedures, contact Avaya, or contact the Avaya
Partner Service representative.
When you place an order for a PLDS-licensed software product, the license entitlements on
the order are automatically created in PLDS. Once these license entitlements are created, you
receive an e-mail notification from PLDS. This e-mail notification includes a license activation
code (LAC). Using the LAC, you can quickly find and activate the newly purchased license
entitlements in PLDS. You can then download the license file.
Important:
You must provide the WebLM host ID to activate the license file in PLDS. The primary
WebLM host ID is the MAC address of a physical network interface card (NIC) on the
server.
If you are not using WebLM to manage the licenses, you must provide the host ID of each
B5800 Branch Gateway in your network to generate a license for each branch. The host ID
is the Feature Key Serial Number printed on the B5800 Branch Gateway System SD card.
