License Transfer behavior from H series device to non-H series device

Zyxel_Ivan

Since the USG FLEX H series device only considers the license with "One Pack", but not by the license key. Once you transfer the available license from H series to non-H series, the license will be split and the system will assign the new license keys. If the license is less than a month, then the system will offer a 1-month license instead.

Let's take an example that transfers the Nebula Pro Pack license from USG FLEX 500H to USG FLEX 200.

You can see there are 1,700 days remaining of the Nebula Pro Pack license in the USG FLEX 500H, and the USG FLEX 200 has no license.

After we transferred the license from USG FLEX 500H to USG FLEX 200, the license has been split into several licenses.

The 1,700 days can be split into one 4-year (1,461 days) and seven 1-month (31 days × 7 = 217 days) licenses. When you use the total remaining days and deduct the above-listed days, you'll have another 22 days (1,700 - 1,461 - 217 = 22). In the meantime, the system won't assign 22 days of license to you, but another 1-month license. So, you'll have one 4-year license and eight 1-month licenses.

After the transfer is complete, you can check the Change Log. You'll find the transfer record here and notice the new license keys begin with S-TRANS.
