NetSight/XMC evaluation license device limit

NetSight/XMC evaluation license device limit

Hello,

Just wondering if the NetSight/XMC evaluation license you can download from the Extreme website has a device limit you can manage and monitor. As far as I understand, the eval license unlocks almost everything, and allows an unlimited number of devices to manage, whether it's a hardware appliance (NMS-A-25) or a virtual one, and the only limit is the maximum supported devices on each kind of appliance.

Thank you,

The eval key/license for NetSight will allow access to all features. These features include:

  • NMS-Base-xxx includes: access to NetSight Console, Inventory Manager, Policy Manager and OneView Basic. OneView Basic includes: The Devices tab, Alarm and Events tab, Administration tab (limited)
  • NMS-xxx Includes: All of NMS-Base-xxx plus NAC Manager, Automated Security Manager and full OneView.
  • NMS-ADV includes: All of NMS-xxx plus Application Intelligence, Advanced wireless Management (maps with triangulated loaction, Coverage/heat maps), One Fabric SDK.
Generally they work just like a permanent license, except they expire 30 or 90 or 180 days after being activated for use. It may or may not be possible to tell how long a particular license will last, but if so then the clue will be in the Activation Key. Licenses that are activated to a Company Name should have preceding the company name text. The number 0 means it's a permanent license, otherwise the number represents the full number of intended evaluation days. For example, "...30:Extreme Networks..." means it's good for 30 days after activation.
