A DDING ACTIVATIONS IN THE FUTURE
If you add activations to the FactoryTalk AssetCentre system in the future, you will have
to refresh activations.
Do not lock activations to virtual network adapters, such as those used for virtual private
networks (VPN) or virtual machines. Instead, lock activations to the Host IDs of fixed
hardware devices, such as hardware network adapters or hard disk serial numbers.
