Licensing Requirement

xhazIQ — Wed, 02 Aug 2023 09:14:14 GMT

Hi,

There have been some confusion among us.

Can anyone explain the license requirement on xiq-pilot for the situation listed below?

1. XIQ Controller - Hardware (ie. E1120)?

2. XIQ Controller - Virtual (ie. VE6120)?

Unlike XIQ-SE where we know we need one xiq-pilot license on top of other devices, do we need the same xiq-pilot licenses for each of these situations?

Thanks in advanced!

Hi,

Whether you have physical or virtual devices, it's one XIQ-PILOT license per supported Extreme Networks device and XIQ-NAV license per Extreme Networks Legacy/Third Party device that you have/want to manage on XIQ-SE (Cloud or On-Prem).

Please note that in case you have Extreme Networks Legacy device (f.e Enterasys switches) and no XIQ-NAV, the device will automatically consume one XIQ-PIL in your pool of XIQ licenses.

Hi K-phi,

Noted, just to manage the device ITSELF will require ONE additional pilot licensing. However, I came across this for the virtual. Any explanation on the pilot license requirement on the Virtual controller?

VE6120 device license not required

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Very strange, as the following article says otherwise...

https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000109753

Is it a virtual XIQ controller migrated from v.5.x to v.10.x ?

Could you share a screenshot for the "Entitlements" menu of your vE6120 (License menu --> Entitlements) ?

Thx
