[cisco-voip] UCCX 8 Licensing

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

You have got to be kidding! 



But in this new version the license gets associated to something we call now 'License MAC', which is a 12 digit HEX value created by hashing a great deal of parameters that you configure on the server, including: Time zone, NTP Server 1 (or ‘none’), NIC speed (or ‘auto’), 

Hostname, IP Address, IP Mask, Gateway Address, Primary DNS, SMTP Server (or ‘none’), Certificate Information (Organization, Unit, Location, State, Country), etc. If there’s a change on any of these parameters, the License MAC also changes and you will need to request a re-host license to the Cisco licensing team in no more than 30 days. 

i can't change my ntp server or nic speed or SMTP server without re-hosting? this stuff changes here without us even knowing sometimes! 

Ed, don't send stuff like this on a Friday! :(

Saw this pop across a twitter feed, thought it would be worth passing around:
