FIRST STEPS - Identify the Correct Release and SBC SWe Lite ID Before Generating a Trial License
Before generating an SBC SWe Lite Trial License, do the following:
- Confirm the SBC SWe Lite was first installed and activated (whether on-premises or in Azure) with Release 8.0.4 software (to identify the SBC SWe Lite's software release, refer to Viewing the Software Version and Hardware ID). If the SBC SWe Lite was initially installed and activated with Release 8.0.3 or earlier, do not generate a license file from this portal at this time. Instead, disregard all further actions on this page and contact Ribbon support for the next steps. An attempt to generate a license without Ribbon support results in an SBC SWe Lite operation failure, and delays the roll-out of SBC services.
- When submitting the SBC SWe Lite ID to generate the license file, confirm you are using the correct SWe Lite ID value: a 32 character string found in the Release 8.0.4 System Overview display.
Before generating a license, identify the SWe Lite ID in System Overview as follows:
- In the WebUI, click the System tab.
- In the System page, click the Overview tab.
- I and record the correct SWe Lite ID (see Figure 1 as an example) before generating a license, and proceed to Prerequisites.
