Installing licenses allows you to use SBC SWe Edge features. You can choose to go with the NLL method or the NWDL method. Licenses applied to the Active instance are replicated to the Standby instance. 

(optional) Installing a Node-Locked License 

If you choose to go with the NLL method, you must upload the NLL license file to the Active instance. 

Note

The license file can be generated with your SBC SWe Edge ID of the Active and Standby instances from Salesforce.
