You can obtain advanced product functionality by employing a software Feature Key. Soft-
ware feature keys are specific to a Gateway's serial number. Once the feature key is
installed and the Gateway is restarted, the new feature's functionality becomes enabled.
Use Netopia Software Feature Keys
Netopia Gateway users obtain advanced product functionality by installing a software fea-
ture key. This concept utilizes a specially constructed and distributed keycode (referred to
as a feature key) to enable additional capability within the unit.
Software feature key properties are specific to a unit’s serial number; they will not be
accepted on a platform with another serial number.
Once installed, and the Gateway restarted, the new feature’s functionality becomes avail-
able. This allows full access to configuration, operation, maintenance and administration of
the new enhancement.
Obtaining Software Feature Keys
Contact Netopia or your Service Provider to acquire a Software Feature Key.
