Frequently Asked Questions
What is an E-LTU?
An E-LTU, or Electronic Term License Unit, is a digital license that grants you the right to use specific software for a defined period, typically on a subscription basis. It replaces traditional physical license keys.
What does 'Closed Sub Group Network' mean in this context?
This typically refers to a specific, isolated, or defined segment of your network where this software is intended to be deployed and managed, ensuring licensing is applied appropriately within that boundary.
How does the subscription billing work?
Subscription billing means you pay a recurring fee (e.g., annually) for the right to use the software and receive updates and support during the subscription term, rather than a one-time perpetual license purchase.
