Before beginning the license registration and activation process, you must do the following:
-
Obtain a Hewlett Packard Enterprise My Networking portal user account.
-
Obtain the order number or product registration ID, and e-mail address from your HPE VAN SDN Controller license order confirmation.
-
Install the HPE VAN SDN Controller software and have the controller running, as described in the HPE VAN SDN Controller Installation Guide.
Each controller installation generates a unique Install ID that is used for licensing activities.
To view the Install ID using the UI, select Licences from the navigation menu. In the Licenses screen, the Install ID appears before the list licenses.
To use curl commands and the REST APIs to complete this task, see curl commands.
