Install a new license

Citrix SD-WAN provides local, remote, and centralized methods to install a license. Select the method that best fits your environment.

The following section contains methods to install a license:

Get your appliance’s Host ID(MAC address) to allocate Citrix licenses

Licenses for Citrix SD-WAN appliances are installed on the appliances as well as a remote Citrix license server. In either case, licenses are bound to the appliance or the Citrix license server using a unique hardware identifier called the Host ID. You will need this Host ID(MAC Address) to generate a license file from My Account.

Log onto the management console of the appliance and navigate to the Manage Licenses page where the License Host Id is displayed under License Information.

  2. In the SD-WAN web management interface, navigate to Configuration > Appliance Settings > Licensing.
