BIG-IQ licence: What does "5 Instances" mean?

tmsh show /sys license shows: BIG-IQ, VE, Centralized Manager, 5 Instances . Does this mean this licence is limited to managing only 5 devices?

Yes, As of My knowledge. Its all about managing only 5 BIG-IP Instances. A BIG-IP instance is defined as a physical BIG-IP appliance, a VIPRION chassis, a vCMP virtual instance, or a Virtual Edition instance. This includes standalone units.
