This function allows you to install and update the license file or fast codes for the FX Series appliance.
For all new installations, Fast Codes will be used for upgrading functionality and Max Data Rates

Fast Codes
The Fast Code is a 14 digit key that will enable the WAN Optimization and the max data rate.
Upgrading Fast Code:
Enter the character sequence provided by Comtech, and then click the ‘Upload
Upgrade Code and Restart’ button. If successful, this action will immediately restart the acceleration
service and the new upgrade license information will be displayed.
NOTE 1:
There are 'trial license' fast codes for 30/60/90 days for Packet Compression and
WANOP. The remaining time trial license period will be noted in the license display at the left
bottom of the Web GUI screens with the firmware version and the serial number.
NOTE 2:
For existing installations, where a license file is currently being used, an upgrade is
available to move to Version 6.0.3 for the new features, including Multicator. License files will
continue to be used for these appliances.
