F5 LTM License Reactivation

We are upgrading our LTM from 12.1.2 to 14.1.2 and I understand that we need to reactivate the license before installing the software to avoid configuration loading issue . As a best a practice , which method do you recommend between automatic and manual method? This is something that is new to me so I want to get some ideas moving on . Thank you .

    Go for automatic only if lb can initiate communication to F5 license server.

    ​

    Else Manual method is safe.

    Thanks​
