New license key required?
Upgrade
Solution
The NetSight products generally require a different License Key for each major release.
Given a version format of x.y.z, each major release is defined by the first two digits, x.y.
For example, Atlas Console versions 1.4 and 1.4.1 could use the same key, while an upgrade from version 1.3 to 1.4 would require a new key.
Customers purchasing a NetSight product without a service contract are restricted to use of that major release only.
Exceptions:
- A 2.1 unhosted license will work for 2.1 and 2.2 and 2.3 versions, whether from upgrade or new install.
- A 2.2 hosted license will work for 2.2 and 2.3 versions, whether from upgrade or new install.
- A 3.0 hosted license will work for 3.0 through 4.4 versions, whether from upgrade or new install.
- A 3.1 hosted license will work for 3.1 through 4.4 (15005) versions, whether from upgrade or new install.
- An Enterprise license will work for 4.2.1 and higher versions, whether from upgrade or new install.
- An Enterprise license is required for all 5.0 and higher installs, and 64-bit Linux/Ubuntu installs.
Customers purchasing a NetSight product
with a service contract are entitled to upgrade to later major releases of the same product; and upon request will be issued a new License key as necessary for that purpose.
