Configuring a feature key
Feature keys verify ownership of the Element Manager and optional features that can be purchased
for the Element Manager. The feature key, which is encoded with a switch’s serial number, can
only be configured on the switch to which it is assigned.
A feature key is a string of alphanumeric characters consisting of both uppercase and lowercase
characters. The following is an example of a feature key format: XxXx-XXxX-xxXX-xX.
NOTE:
The total number of characters may vary. The key is case sensitive and must be entered
exactly, including the dashes.
NOTE:
You can configure a feature key with the switch online. However, if a current feature is
disabled by activating a new feature key, take the switch offline before enabling the new feature
key.
The feature key, which is encoded with a switch’s serial number, can only be configured on the
switch to which it is assigned.
To enable an optional feature on the switch, enter the feature key into the New Feature Key dialog
box. Display this dialog box by clicking Configure > Feature.
NOTE:
For detailed descriptions of features that you can enable using the Configure Feature Key
dialog box, see ”
