Adding a License using the Initialization Tool

You can add licenses purchased using the Initialization Tool, without starting Connection Control Manager.

If you are using a second PWA-RX1 instance as a receiver only or as a C3 and should be only, add a license using this procedure. When using as a C3 Portal receiver, also see “Configuring Connection with C3 Portal.”

First, purchase a base license, obtain a purchase key, and then follow the steps below.
