To add a new feature key manually, paste or type the key into the Feature Key field and click Submit 
Key. An error message is displayed if the feature is not added (if the key is incorrect, etc.), otherwise the 
feature key is added to the display.

To activate a new feature key from the Pending Activation list, select the key (mark the “Select” 
checkbox) and click Activate Selected Keys.

You can configure your appliance to automatically download and install new keys as they are issued. In 
this case, the Pending Activation list will always be empty. You can tell AsyncOS to look for new keys 
at any time by clicking the Check for New Keys button, even if you have disabled the automatic 
checking via the Feature Key Settings page.

You can also use the 

featurekeyconfig

 CLI command to accomplish the same tasks as on the Feature 

Key Settings page.

If the feature key for the feature you are trying to access (via the web interface) has expired, please 
contact your Cisco representative or support organization.
