Usage Scenario
RTU is an authorization mode for selling hardware capabilities in installments, such as the number of spatial streams, capacity, and ports. An RTU license cannot be migrated after being bound to a device. As a part of hardware value, RTU licenses have the same lifecycle and the same entitlement as the hardware. The quantities of spatial streams, antennas, and service ports have always been the indicators for a WLAN in the industry, among which the quantity of spatial streams is the most basic indicator. RTU licensing allows basic Wi-Fi 6 AP models to support features such as dual-band, three-radio, and independent scanning radio.
After applying for RTU licenses in batches, you will obtain an RTU license package. You need to manually upload the RTU license package to the AC, and then run this command to unzip the package and automatically deliver the RTU licenses to the corresponding APs.
Prerequisites
An RTU license package has been manually uploaded to the AC.
Configuration Impact
Executing this command will unzip the RTU license package locally on the device, with a list of RTU license files generated.
Follow-up Procedure
Manually restart the APs to which the RTU licenses have been delivered so that these licenses can take effect.
