Embodiment Construction

[0029] Exemplary implementations are described below as preferred embodiments of the present invention.

[0030] Depending on specific needs, the user may first configure licensed protected system functions, and then deploy the license, or vice versa. The figures show corresponding preferred embodiments of the invention.

[0031] Fig. 1 shows a simplified diagram of a licensed protection system function management system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The management system includes management tools and managed systems.

[0032] In particular, the management tool is operatively connected with the management agent. Configuration of the connection includes configuration of licensed protected system functions via the management agent, and initiation of distribution of licenses to the management agent, deletion of licenses via the management agent, and inquiry of license validity status.

[0033]According to some embodiments of the invention, the m...

Abstract

An operating method uses at least one element having at least one license protected system feature, a management tool, a management agent, and a license management element. The method includes a configuration procedure and a license deployment procedure. The configuration procedure includes sending commands for the configuration of the license protected system feature from the management tool to the management agent, and executing the configuration of the license protected system feature by the management agent. The license deployment procedure includes sending command for the download of the license from the management tool to the management agent and downloading it correspondingly. The license protected system feature is enabled only if both the configuration procedure and the license deployment procedure have been duly executed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for fully decoupling licenses from related license protected configurations. In particular, the present invention relates to an operating method and management system, and a managed system suitable for them. Background technique [0002] The background of the invention is the field of systems comprising units with license-protected system functions (and, of course, not license-protected system functions). Such system functions are specific functionalities of the system, such as eg Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) Adaptation Layer Type 2 (AAL-2) multiplexing on the field of communication systems. The basic idea behind such system functions (ie license protected system functions) is to have a certain system function protected by an associated license which can be priced additionally. If a valid license is available, the license-protected system functionality may be used, and if such a valid license i...
