Cisco Cisco Prime Network Services Controller 3.2 Installation Guide

A Citrix NetScaler load balancer license bundle is a .zip file that contains:

• One or more license files with the extension .lic.

• A license.xml file.

To view an example license.xml file, see

The following conditions apply to license bundles:

• All license files in the bundle must be from the same vendor and for a single platform. For the current release, the only supported

vendor/platform combinations are Citrix and VPX or NS1000V.

• All license files in the bundle must be of the same license category. For example, they must have same feature level (such as

Standard or Premium) and throughput level (such as 10 or 1000).

• You must import the license bundle before instantiating the load balancer.

• You can import multiple license bundles, but the bundles cannot contain files with the same host ID or the same filename as an

existing file.

• You cannot delete a license if it is assigned to a load balancer service device.
