    Q: Will be be able to change the license on the machine which uses the lab license to use the 200mbps license?

     

    Ans: Yes you can, but you need a valid support contract to activate it on the machine which currently uses the lab license.

     

    Q: What is the procedure?

    Ans: You have to call F5 support and request them to release the Old licence from old VM

     

    Q: Can we do it without the use of F5 support?

    Ans: No

     

    Q: Will F5 support help us if we do not have a valid support contract?

    Ans: They could help you but you cannot activate it on new machine without Active support contract.

     

    Hope this helps
