Last updated April 24th, 2024

This section provides information about the Knox Suite license, and describes how to navigate through the Knox Suite products to ensure that your Knox Suite license is properly registered.

Knox Suite license

When you apply for access to Knox Suite, a trial license is automatically generated and registered for you. This license applies to all Knox Suite services, covers up to 30 active devices, and expires after three months.

When your trial license expires, you can purchase a commercial license from an authorized reseller to continue to use Knox Services:

  1. In the navigation pane, go to Licenses. The consolidated license page opens.

  2. Click ACTIONS > Get a license > FIND RESELLER to view the list of authorized resellers.

  3. Select a reseller, enter your contact details, then click CONTACT NOW to submit a request to them.

  4. Connect with the reseller and complete your license purchase.

  5. After you procure your commercial license, there are two ways to register it on the Knox Admin Portal:

    • You can provide your Knox Customer ID to your license reseller, who can register the license on your behalf. To obtain your Knox Customer ID, click your account icon.

      Knox Customer ID displays after clicking the account icon.

    • You can also register the license manually. To do so, go to Licenses, then click ACTIONS > Enter license key. Enter your license name and key to activate Knox Suite.

Other licenses

Knox Suite includes Knox Capture and Knox Platform for Enterprise, which need their own separate license keys. If you plan to use either of those services, you need to generate a free Knox Platform for Enterprise Premium license or a Knox Capture trial license:

  1. Click Licenses on the Knox Admin Portal navigation pane.
  2. On the consolidated licenses page that opens, click Manage license keys. The Other License Keys page opens.
  3. Click ACTIONS and select which license key you want to generate. The new license is added to your license key list.
