License Information
All the UCT Taps deployed in your environment periodically report the statistics to UCT Controller. Then the UCT Controller periodically reports the collective statistics of UCT Taps to GigaVUE-FM for Volume-Based Licensing.
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 UCT, and tracks the overuse if any.
Volume-based licensing has a service period of 1 month. Service period is the period of time for which the total usage or overage is tracked. There is a grace period for each license that is encoded in the license file. The license effectively provides data allowance for this additional time after the official end time of the license.
