HiPath 3000 as a Standalone System
The components for this system which require licensing are licensed using one license file. This

number with a MAC address that is unique worldwide. To guarantee unique licens-
ing, the license file is linked to the MAC address of a HiPath 3000 control board. The
various licensing scenarios are described below.
