the W-ClearPass license is included with the hardware appliance.
To activate and apply the W-ClearPass license:
1. After the configuration has been applied at the virtual appliance console, open a web browser and go to the
management interface of W-ClearPass: https://x.x.x.x/tips/, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the
management interface defined for the W-ClearPass server in Table 6.
2. Accept any security warnings from your browser regarding the self-signed SSL certificate, which comes
installed in W-ClearPass by default.
