NBX Licensing 75 Example 1- All devices in the same License Group: You purchase and install a package of ten Group 2 Licenses on your NBX system and then add five 3102 Business Telephones, one 3103 Manager's Telephone and one 3105 Attendant Console for a total of seven Group 2 devices. The system has three Group 2 licenses still available. Example 2 - Borrowing from the next highest License Group: You add a 3101 Basic Telephone (Group 1 device) to your NBX system, which has three Group 2 licenses available. You do not add a Group 1 license to the system. The system checks for the availability of a Group 1 license. Since no Group 1 licenses are available, the system assigns a Group 2 license to the 3101 Basic Telephone. The system now has two Group 2 licenses available. Example 3 - Borrow from the highest License Group: You add two 3100 Entry Telephones (Group 0 device) to your NBX system, which has two Group 2 licenses available. You do not add a Group 0 license to the system. The system checks for the availability of a Group 0 license, then checks for the availability of a Group 1 license, and since there are no Group 0 or 1 licenses available, assigns the Group 2 licenses to the 3100 Entry Telephones. The system now has no licenses available. Example 4 - Dynamic License Group Adjustment: You add another 3103 Manager's Telephone (Group 2 device) to your an NBX system that has no licenses available in any group. The system will not enable the new telephone. You could add another Group 2 license, but it would be more cost-effective to add a less expensive Group 0 license instead. After you add a Group 0 license, the system automatically reassigns licenses in this manner: ■ Releases one of the Group 2 licenses that was assigned to one of the 3100 Entry Telephones. ■ Assigns the new Group 0 license to the 3100 Telephone. ■ Assigns the released Group 2 license to the new 3103 Telephone. The system now has no licenses available. Example 5 - Manual License Group readjustment: You add another 3103 Manager's Telephone (Group 2 device) to an NBX system that has no licenses available in any group. Instead of adding a Group 0 license, as shown in Example 4, you could manually remove one of the telephones from the system to free a license. For example, you could use the NBX
