License Activation

After you have installed your Dialogic® Diva® product, you might need to generate a license file and activate it in the web interface to unlock the required functionality in the product. To do so, you need the Proof of Purchase Code (PPC) delivered with your product and the Device Unique ID (DUID) of the installed product. See below for more information about the PPC and DUID.

For the Diva System Release LIN software, licenses are available as free 30-day test licenses. For the Diva softIP Software, a free test license for two channels (voice and fax) is available on the Dialogic web site http://www.dialogic.com. If you use the Diva softIP software in a virtualized environment, see also Licensing the Dialogic® Diva® softIP Software in Virtualized Environments.

Note: You can purchase the license with your Diva Media Board vendor.

You need to generate a license file if you have installed one of the following products and purchased a license for one of the following functionalities:

Device Unique ID (DUID)

The DUID binds the installed Diva product to your PC (PC fingerprint).

To get the DUID:

Open the Dialogic® Diva® web interface and click License Management.
The DUIDs of the installed Diva products are displayed.
To use your DUID for generating a license, select it, right-click it, and select Copy.
If you need to do web activation using another computer, open an editor, paste the DUID, and save the file.

See To Register Your PPC and DUID for information about generating a license.

Proof of Purchase Code (PPC)

When you purchase the license, you will receive a PPC either in printed form or via email. By registering this PPC, you represent and warrant that you lawfully purchased the license.
