Volume-Based Licensing (VBL)
All the V Series 2 nodes connected to GigaVUE-FM periodically reports statistics on the amount of traffic that flows through the V Series Nodes. The statistics gives information on the total volume of data that is allowed to flow through the V Series Node versus the actual data volume that flows through the V Series Nodes. All licensed applications, when running on the node, generate usage statistics. In the Volume-Based Licensing scheme, a license entitles specific applications on your devices to use a specified amount of total data volume over the term of the license. The distribution of the license to individual nodes or devices becomes irrelevant for Gigamon’s accounting purpose. GigaVUE-FM tracks the total amount of data processed by the various licensed applications and provides visibility into the actual amount of data, each licensed application is using on each node, and track the overuse if any. You will have grace period for each license that are conveyed in the license file.
For purchasing licenses with the VBL option, contact our Gigamon Sales. Refer to Contact Sales.
