Beginning with SBC Core release 7.0, the SBC is configured in legacy license mode by default. The “local” and “network” options for license mode that were supported for SBC SWe in prior releases are being phased out. Although some references to local license mode remain in documentation, the CLI, or the EMA UI, local license mode is not supported.
If your SBC SWe deployment was configured to use network license mode in a prior release, the tools to monitor and configure network-mode licensing remain available but will be phased out in the future. Contact your Ribbon Sales Representative for more information on licensing and assistance in updating your license.

The Site License Server (SLS) is co-located with the EMS. Sonus currently only supports a pair of license servers deployed in an EMS GR configuration. The license servers run in a leader/standby redundancy model sharing a common pool of licenses.
% set system licenseServer priority <1-4> serverAddress <hostname/IPv4 address/IPv6 address>
A maximum of four SLSs are configurable, but Sonus currently only supports up to two license servers that are deployed as part of an EMS GR deployment.
