Generating and Uploading the Junos Space License Key File
The Junos Space software provides a default, 60-day trial license. After 60 days, the use
of the Junos Space software expires except for the Upload License command. The
administrator must activate the software with the Juniper Networks License Key to regain
use of the Junos Space software. Within two weeks of the license expiration date, a
license expiration warning is displayed when users log into Junos Space and from the
About Junos Space page.
Junos Space license management involves a two-step process:
1.
Generating the license key file. Juniper Networks uses a license management system
(LMS) to manage the deployment of the Junos Space product—appliances, connection
points, connections, and applications. When you order Junos Space, Juniper Networks
LMS sends an e-mail with an authorization code or serial number and instructions on
how to obtain a license key.
2.
Uploading the license key using the Junos Space Administration workspace user
interface. The system administrator must upload a license key file in the Administration
Manage Licenses user interface to license the Junos Space product and activate the
configuration ordered.
This procedure includes the following topics:
1.

Generating the License Key File
If you order Junos Space, Juniper Networks sends an e-mail with an authorization code
that includes a resource guide describing how to obtain a license key.
If you order a Junos Space virtual appliance, you also receive an e-mail with a serial
number and instructions on how to go to the Juniper Networks license management
system to apply that serial number.
