License
In License, you can view the installed surveillance device licenses and the number of licenses which you have already used. When you run out of installed licenses, you can add new surveillance device licenses up to the maximum number of surveillance devices of your Synology NASNVR216. Moreover, you can also delete installed surveillance device licenses here.
To install surveillance device licenses:
- Click Add. Read and agree with the Terms and Conditions, choose Agree, and click Next.
- If you are adding licenses from the CMS host server, select a server to which you wish to add surveillance device licenses, and click Next.
- Enter or paste the license keys you have purchased. (Click + or - to add or delete license keys.)
- Click Finish to complete the license installation.
Note: Newly added license keys will be sent back to Synology for validation. License installation cannot be completed if your Synology NASNVR216 is not connected to the Internet.
To delete surveillance device licenses:
Select the licenses you want to delete, and click Delete.
To update the list of surveillance device licenses:
Click Refresh to get the latest list of surveillance device licenses.
To show/hide license keys:
Click Show or Hide to toggle the display mode of license keys. The admin credentials will be required to completely display license keys.
Note:
- Camera licenses have been installed by default in Surveillance Station. The amount of default licenses depends on the configuration of the Synology NASNVR216 you purchased. These default licenses cannot be deleted.
- Surveillance Station installed on Docker DSM/Virtual DSM comes without any default surveillance device licenses.
- Two surveillance device licenses have been installed by default in Surveillance Station. These two default licenses cannot be deleted.
- The CMS host will perform the management over the licenses owned by the recording servers in the central management system. To add or delete licenses for the recording servers, you need to log in to the CMS host.
- If your surveillance environment is working with Central Management System (CMS), we recommend adding licenses to different recording servers to prevent the lack of licenses when the host server is unavailable.
- Surveillance Station may use more than one license for a surveillance device of particular models. For more information, please refer to Synology website.
