Vunetrix Manual: Enter a License Key

A license key for Vunetrix Network Monitor consists of the license name and a license key. The key is a string consisting of approx. 70 characters.

Your Personal License Information

You should have received license name and key with your original installation or via email from a Vunetrix Technical Support representative.

During the setup process, Vunetrix will ask you to enter your license information. Please use copy and paste to fill out the form in the dialog shown by the installer.

Change License Key

Usually you do not need to enter a key manually, as it is prompted during installation. However, there are some scenarios where you need to change your key, such as upgrading the license to accommodate more sensors.

If you need to enter new license information, please follow these steps.

Step 1: Make Sure You Have Installed the Correct Edition

Please check first if you have installed the correct edition and then enter the license key. For the latest version of the installer, please contact your Vunetrix Support Representative

Step 2: Enter the License Key in the Vunetrix Server Administrator

Please start the Vunetrix Server Administrator program from the Windows Start Menu. In the program, select the License tab.
