licensing. See “Using SNMP” on page 27.
Managing License Certificates
You can install license units contained within a single license certificate or an
envelope.
About Single Certificates
When a certificate for an NLS-aware application is installed, NLS adds a
License Container object to the tree and a License Certificate object to that
container object. You select the context or location in the eDirectory
TM
tree for
that License Container object.
You install license certificates by accessing envelope files (.NLF).
