Re-activate F5 LTM VE Evaluation license

Hi all, can i re-activate F5 LTM evaluation license when it almost reaches 90 days ?

 

because there's delay in getting the license PO approval and it would take some effect to redeploy the ova and restore the backup. I'm just looking if I could re-activate it for another 90 days.

    I don't think you can. Have you looked at the lab licenses? Valid for 1 year and cost ~100usd.

    Hi,

     

    Are you talking about trial or evaluation license?

     

    The trial license (90 days) is installed on a specific virtual appliance ova (version 11.3.0 only). This virtual appliance can't be migrate to production use.

     

    The evaluation license (30 or 45 days) is installed on the same ova than production licenses. You can ask for multiple licenses and reactivate multiple times until you have the production licenses.
