What happen after license expires ?

[prashan]

Hi Team,

What happen when HiveManager NG Subscription License for Aerohive Access Point/Switches and HiveManager NG Perpetual License for Aerohive Access Point/Switches expires ?

Is it going to freeze/discontinued like Meraki ? Will exiting configuration remain ? Or it will comes to "Connect" features ?

[prashan]

Thank you, so until we renew the license we can work with current configuration and policies ryt ? And can we add new APs (Connect license) for expired hivemanager ?

If you have an expired license, HiveManager will lock you to the license page until you enter a valid license. Your APs will continue running as normal unless they encounter a different issue, but you won't be able to manage or update them until you enter a new key in to your HiveManager. The HiveManager will never revert to Connect on you.
