license keys installed on a device, and the features and capacities available on the device.

Installing Trial License Keys

You can install a trial license on NSM which allows you to add up to 6025 devices on a
software installation and 525 devices on an appliance setup. You can choose trial periods
of 30, 60 and 90 days.
The Expires in (Days) field in the NSM License Information window shows the status of
your license. When you install a trial license, NSM displays a warning that your license

number of days. When your license expires, NSM notifies you that your trial
period is over and prompts you to install a new license. You can proceed with the NSM
GUI log in only after the installation of a valid permanent license.
