New deployment

An official license is activated through the Sangfor Licensing Server. To activate a trial license, contact the local sales team. For license activation methods, see Chapter 2.2 "Product Activation".

 

License Update/Renewal

A license can be activated twice. If a license is lost after the first activation, it can be activated again. The license information is related to the Athena EPP manager hardware. A change in the hardware information invalidates a license. License update/renewal is required in the following two scenarios:

  1. A change in the Athena EPP manager's hardware information

Go to System > Licensing and click Renew License, as shown in the following figure.

  1. Migrate to a new server due to an Athena EPP manager fault

In this case, go to System > Licensing and import a new license, as shown in the following figure.

License expiration leads to the following results:

1. Athena EPP cannot be installed on a new endpoint.

2. Athena EPP and its databases cannot be updated.

3. Neural-X and Threat Analytics are disabled.
