GigaSMART Licensing

Flexible floating software licensing options are available for GigaSMART applications with GigaVUE‑OS and GigaVUE‑FM 5.7.00. Features include:

■   A flexible licensing model to include floating licenses, subscriptions licenses, and perpetual licenses.
■   New streamlined order management system for subscription licenses.
■   Floating licenses are available through the GigaVUE‑FM, which now has a License Manager to manage and activate floating licenses.

Important: The Gigamon licensing portal now requires a Gigamon Community login to access and activate all software licenses.

Note:  Existing perpetual licenses that are node-locked to a specific card can still be managed via the GigaVUE-OS CLI, however, the more flexible licensing options (such as trials, floating, and subscriptions) are available through GigaVUE‑FM. Some GigaSMART applications, such as De-duplication, Inline SSL, and Application Intelligence, are only available through a subscription license.

Note:  Refer to the Release Notes v5.7.00 for additional information.

Note:  Contact your Gigamon Sales Representative to learn more about the available floating license options for your fabric configuration.
