This form is used to display the function, value and status of license keys entered into the IP Office configuration. License keys are 32 character strings uniquely based on the feature they active and the serial number of a Feature Key dongle being used by the IP Office control unit.

IP Office Feature Key dongles are available in several types. Each IP Office system only supports license validation against a single dongle and vice versa. The licenses in the IP Office systems configuration must match the serial number of the Feature Key dongle. Depending on the dongle type, it is installed either directly on the IP Office control unit or onto a PC running the IP Office Feature Key Server application.

•	Each IP Office will only support license validation against one feature key dongle.

•	If being used, a Feature Key Server PC will only validate licenses for the first IP Office to which it connects after starting.

•	For parallel and USB feature keys, the address of the PC hosting the dongle and running the IP Office Feature Key Server software is set by the License Server IP Address setting on the System \| System tab. For serial key dongles, the address is set to 0.0.0.0.

•	Note that for the IP500 control unit, a smart card Feature Key dongle must be present even if no licensed features are being used. For the IP500 control unit, the dongle fitted controls default operation.

•	The serial number and whether the control unit has an local (serial or smart card) or remote (parallel or USB) Feature Key dongle are indicated by the Dongle Serial Number field on the System \| System tab.

Importing License Keys
It is recommended that licenses are cut and pasted electronically. This removes the chances of errors due to mistyping and misinterpretation of characters fonts. Where multiple licenses need to be added, the CSV import option can be used (File | Import/Export | Import). Licenses imported this way may be listed as invalid until the configuration is saved and then reloaded
