Use

To purchase a subscription license, go to linerate.f5.com/try. For other licensing options, contact sales.

After you install F5® LineRate®, you can install the license.

The following are required for your purchased license to automatically renew:

  • The credit card on file must be active and must process the purchase or renewal.
  • The F5® LineRate® hardware must have Internet connectivity.
  • A F5® LineRate® interface must be configured with either DHCP or a default route and IP address.
  • F5® LineRate® must have licensing set to auto.

Note: If your F5® LineRate® system does not meet one or more of the criteria, you can manually install and renew the license before the license period expires. See [Manually Installing a Purchased License](https://docs.lineratesy stems.com/093Release_2.5/100Getting_Started_Guide/130Configuring_Licensing/Man ually_Installing_a_Purchased_License).

The rate limits for HTTP requests, TCP connections, and Mb per second are based on the license you purchased. For more information about how licenses work, see [About Licensing](https://docs.lineratesystems.com/093Release_2.5/20 0CLI_Reference_Guide/Exec_Commands/License_Mode_Commands_(exec)/About_Licensin g).

Currently, the only feature you can license is called base.

For the complete process, see [Configuring Licensing](https://docs.lineratesys tems.com/093Release_2.5/100Getting_Started_Guide/130Configuring_Licensing).
