Parameter server-ip server-redundancy license-vrrp Description Enter the IP address of the licensing server. This command is available in config mode. Use this command to specify configure server redundancy for the centralized licensing feature. This command is available in config mode. Use this command to specify a VRRP instance to be used for the centralized licensing feature. This command is available in config mode. By default, the master controller in a master-local topology is the primary licensing server. If this master controller already has a redundant standby master, that redundant master will automatically act the backup licensing server with no additional configuration. If your primary licensing server does not yet have a redundant standby controller and you want to use a backup server with the centralized licensing feature, you must identify a second controller you want to designate as the backup licensing server, and define a virtual router on the primary licensing server. For details, see vrrp. peer-ip-address Enter the IP address of the backup licensing server. This command is available in config mode. Usage Guidelines Obtain a Dell software license certificate from your Dell sales representative or authorized reseller. Use the certificate ID and the system serial number to obtain a software license key which you install in the controller. Starting with ArubaOS 6.3, you no longer need to reboot a controller after adding or deleting a license. Users that are not very familiar with this procedure may wish to use the License Management page in the WebUI to install and manage licenses on the controller. Centralized licensing simplifies licensing management by distributing licenses installed on one controller to other controllers on the network. One controller acts as a centralized license database for all other controllers connected to it, allowing all controllers to share a pool of unused licenses. The primary and backup licensing server can share single set of licenses, eliminating the need for a redundant license set on the backup server. Local licensing client controllers maintain information sent from the licensing server even if licensing client controller and licensing server controller can no longer communicate. You can use the centralized licensing feature in a master-local topology with a redundant backup master, or in a multi-master network where all the masters are connected to a single W-AirWave server. In the master-local topology, the master controller acts as the primary licensing server, and the redundant backup master acts as the backup licensing server. In a multi-master network, one controller must be designated as a primary server and a second controller configured as a backup licensing server.
