When IP Office uses WebLM licensing, each configured H.323 or SIP extension requires a license and IP Office requests the required licenses from the WebLM server. Sufficient licenses are required for all the configured H.323 and SIP extensions and not only for the maximum number of concurrently-registered extensions. This is consistent with WebLM licensing for users and receptionists.
Note:
With WebLM licensing, IP Office does not support configuring of a large number of extensions with a small number of licenses to cover only a subset of the extensions registering at the same time. For example, configuring three extensions with one IP endpoint license to cover only one of the three extensions registering at the same time. However, if you want support of this behavior, you can use a local PLDS license file instead of Centralized WebLM licensing, and set the Reserve License field for the extensions to None.
For each configured H.323 or SIP extension, IP Office requests from the WebLM server an Avaya or third-party IP endpoint license, as per the Reserve License field of the configured extension record. When IP Office uses WebLM licensing, the Reserve License field for each configured H.323 and SIP extension is by default set to Avaya IP endpoint license. This field is editable and the administrator can change it to a third-party IP endpoint license or to both Avaya and third-party IP endpoints.
Note:
For the Reserve License field, the value None is not available with WebLM licensing because IP Office must request a license from the WebLM server.
