Avaya provides a Web-based License Manager (WebLM) to manage licenses of one or more Avaya software products for your organization. WebLM facilitates easy tracking of licenses. To track and manage licenses in an organization, WebLM requires a license file from the Avaya Product Licensing and Delivery System (PLDS) website at https://plds.avaya.com.

The license file of a software product is in an XML format. The license file contains information regarding the product, the major release, the licensed features of the product, and the licensed capacities of each feature that you purchase. After you purchase a licensed Avaya software product, you must activate the license file for the product in PLDS and install the license file on the WebLM server.

License activations in PLDS require the host ID of the WebLM server for inclusion in the license file. The host ID of the WebLM server is displayed on the Server Properties page of the WebLM server.
