10  Appendix D: Upgrade of Features 
The ASI-IP-GTW ASI to IP Video Gateway encompasses software 
licensing of functionality. This appendix describes how to upgrade the 
product features with the software feature system. 
Customers who purchase "base" software licenses may wish to increase 
their software functionality or feature set at some point. A feature 
license conveys the right to use a feature, but cannot add a feature to a 
software release that does not support it. 
The following table describes which functionality is currently available 
through software licenses: 
 
Table 25. Functionality enabled through software licenses 
 
When you order upgrade of functionality on your ASI-IP-GTW, you will 
receive a license key on email. Figure 37 shows the format of the 
license key. The license key is an encrypted code linked to the serial 
number of the unit to be upgraded.
