All network edition installations require license activation. New installations have a 10 day grace period from the license issue date before requiring activation. Your license can be activated from the administration console by selecting
Configure>Global Settings>License page, then clicking
Activate License in the toolbar. You can also activate your license from the command line interface.
Licenses are automatically activated if the ZCS server has a connection to the Internet and can communicate with the Zimbra License server. If you are unable to automatically activate your license, see the next section
Manual License Activation.
For systems that do not have external access to the Zimbra License server, you can use the Zimbra Support Portal to manually activate your license. Go to the Zimbra website at
www.zimbra.com and click on the
Support page to display the Zimbra Technical Support page. Click on the
Support Portal Login button to display the Zimbra Support Portal page. Enter your email and password to log in.
