Unable to obtain valid license
Symptom:
An error message appears that the license cannot be obtained, is invalid 
or has expired. 
Description:
When the IP 2050 Softphone is launched, an error message appears in 
the display area indicating that the license server is unreachable or that 
the existing license code is invalid or has expired.
Potential Causes:

client and the Licensing Server.
An invalid license has been entered.
The license has expired. Upon installation, there is a 30-day

to your system administrator. If the license code is invalid or has expired, 
obtain a valid license code from your system administrator.
