Licensing Mechanism
To change the license, you need to insert a new license code. The license is based on the MAC
address port G1 of the APSolute Vision server and on a license ID that is changed every time a new
license is inserted. To get a license upgrade, you need to send the MAC address of the platform.
Migrating APSolute Vision from the OnDemand Switch VL
Platform to the OnDemand Switch VL2 Platform
This section describes the procedure required for migrating APSolute Vision on the OnDemand
Switch VL (ODS-VL) platform to the OnDemand Switch VL2 (ODS-VL2) platform.
Note:
Migrating APSolute Vision on the OnDemand Switch VL (ODS-VL) platform to the OnDemand
Switch VL2 (ODS-VL2) platform uses a special procedure, which requires the
Administrator
or the
Vision Administrator
role and
root
access to the ODS-VL2 operating system.
For more information about the migration procedure, see the "APSolute Vision CLI Commands"
chapter in the
APSolute Vision User Guide
.
You can migrate to the ODS-VL2 platform with
only the system-configuration backup
of the ODS-VL
platform or with the
full system backup
of the ODS-VL platform. For information on what each
backup includes, see the
APSolute Vision User Guide.

root/opt/radware/box/bin
directory, run the following
