Licenses

Cetain AlphaCom features require a software license key. The license key is linked to the MAC address of the AMC-IP board.

AlphaCom XE License Activation Code and License Keys

General

Zenitel generates a ‘License Activation Code’ (LAC) which can be regarded as the actual article. In order for Zenitel to be able to generate the actual License Key, the License Activation Code must be registered at Zenitel together with the MAC-address of the AMC-IP card for which the license is intended.

Registration can be done by reporting the MAC-address and LAC in an e-mail to licensing@zenitel.com. More than one LAC can be listed on the registration form. All listed License Activation Codes together with the MAC address will be used to generate a single License Key which will enable all licensed functions.

The License Key will be shipped to the customer’s e-mail address. As the License key is rather complex, it should be inserted in the set-up program using the copy/paste function.

Service

In case of service replacement of an AMC-IP card, all licenses will remain available for a 20-day period. A new lasting license key must be obtained for the new AMC-IP card during this period. If it is a replacement of a black AMC v11 card, all licenses are kept with the movement of the STIC.

Additional licences

Additional licenses can be purchased at any time. Any new license will be added to already purchased licenses for the same hardware. A new license key will be issued to replace the existing license key; this will cover all the new and old legal licenses.

Inserting the license key

AlphaWeb: Input license key

• Obtain the license key from your STENTOFON supplier
• Log on to AlphaWeb
• Select System Configuration > Licensing
• Press the Insert new License Key button
• Enter the 24 or 36 character key string in the Input License Key field
• Accept the Terms and Conditions by pressing "Yes"
• Activate the license by clicking "Yes" to "Do you want to reset the amc system now?"

Free License period

The AMC-IP board comes from factory with a 20-day "free license". All licenses are enabled during this period. The time is counted down only when the AMC-IP board is operational.

Licenses

AlphaNet license

AlphaNet over IP

AlphaCom XE Audio Servers can be interconnected via IP networks. This does not require additional hardware inside the server, but requires the correct license. The license for STENTOFON AlphaNet makes it possible to establish communication between AlphaCom XE nodes in an IP network.

The license gives the number of calls that can be active simultaneously.

Available AlphaNet licenses:

• 100 9640 002: AlphaNet and Multi-Module VoIP License for 2 Static Lines
• 100 9640 008: AlphaNet and Multi-Module VoIP License for 8 Dynamic Lines

For more documentation please see http://www.zenitel.com/product/ip-networking-licenses

A static license means that the destination node of an audio link needs to be defined at commissioning, a dynamic link is a common resource, and can be used for any audio link that requires connection.

Note: This license can also be used for Multi-Module systems. A license will then be required in all connected modules, also in the slave modules. Although this license can be used for MultiModule, it is recommended to use the dedicated "MultiModule" license for this purpose, see next paragraph.

MultiModule license

MultiModule over IP

The STENTOFON AlphaCom XE MultiModule function makes it possible to increase the capacity of an exchange by adding up to four AlphaCom XE server cabinets together in a multi-module.

The multi-module license gives the possibility to expand the size of an Audio Server. It is possible to add up to 4 modules in a multi-module Audio Server. The modules will be linked together over a local area IP network (LAN). 30 VoIP channels are available in each server module.
Note: The license is required in the master module only, the slave modules do not need any license.

Available MultiModule licenses:

Billing License

The Vingtor ACM Billing application requires a license to operate. There are 5 license packages available which also determines the number of simultaneous out-going Billing calls that can be handled.

As of today the Billing trunks uses SIP trunks for out-going calls and the SIP trunks needs their own licenses as well.

In an AlphaNet, several nodes can be activated with a Billing license. Other nodes which have no local Billing license activated can still report and/or make Billing calls to ONE of the nodes which have the Billing license activated.
