of a function.

A temporary license key has a restriction on use period and the period can be 1,
30, or 60-day.

A license key becomes active only after system rebooting after the key is installed
or deleted.

[Installing License Key]
When the system is shipped out, basically there is no registered license key. Therefore, you
must install the license key you received right after the first system installation. You can
install a license key directly or remotely using CLI.
install-key: Registers a file. If a license key file exists in a specified folder, use the
license key file for registration. Once it is installed, the license key file is deleted from
the system.
install-key [LICENSE_KEY]: Direct registration
install-key [IP_ADDRESS] [PORT_NUMBER] [ID] [PASSWORD] [PATH]: Remote
registration
