Automatic Serving of 
Feature Keys

Options to automatically check and download feature keys and to

Automatic checks are normally performed once a month but this changes to 
once a day when a feature key is to expire in less than 10 days and once a 
day after key expiration, for up to one month. After a month, the expired key 
is no longer included in the list of expiring/expired keys.
