Cisco Access Registrar 4.2 Licensing
CAR 4.2 uses a new licensing mechanism that enables you to activate all features in Cisco AR. During
system initialization, the Cisco AR server sets up the licensing data model and activates all features.
In CAR 4.2, licensing is based on transactions per second(TPS). Every license will cover all features,
but with restrictions enforced on the TPS. TPS is calculated based on the number of packets flowing into
CAR irrespective of the feature.
