Get a Knox Suite license for Enterprise Edition devices

Last updated July 26th, 2023

This section describes how to generate a Knox Suite license for your EE devices.

The number of license seats generated is equal to the number of devices included in the upload you selected.

This procedure assumes you have completed the prerequisite steps.

Important

If you have a legacy EE license and you’re converting your license, you can also perform this procedure to generate a Knox Suite license. As soon as you generate your Knox Suite license, your legacy licenses for Knox Configure and Knox E-FOTA on MDM will expire in three months.

Tip

If you want to add a new batch of EE devices to an existing license instead of generating a new license, see Append Enterprise Edition devices to an existing Knox Suite license for more information.
