Software Licenses
The DSI SS7MDL4 codefile supports different MTP2 link densities on the board. These are enabled using a
Host Software License that is to be ordered at the same time as the hardware. The Host Software License
licenses a specific number of link resources on the host that may be shared between boards in the same
chassis.
For details on how to activate the host license please refer to

.
A combination of link types (provided they are supported by the board’s run mode) may be configured by the
host (on any board) provided the required link resources are available. A configured link’s resources are
freed when either the link is unconfigured or the board on which the link is currently active is reset.
The following table shows the available licenses:
The number of link resources required for each link type is shown below:
Note:
IMA bundles are licensed based on the number of ATM cell streams they contain.

Run Modes
The run mode of a board determines the combination of protocols (LSL/HSL/ATM/IMA) available to the host.
