1. Create an activation request (
see 
2. see Creating an activation request).
3. Contact an AxxonSoft manager to get the necessary license-server.deb package and the keyfile.zip key package for the private License Server.
   The keyfile.zip key package contains:
   
   1. Certificate: ngp.licserver.crt
   2. Private key: ngp.licserver.key
   3. Server key: server.license.key
   4. Client key: license.key
4. Copy the license-server.deb package, received from an AxxonSoft manager, to the Downloads folder.

5. Install the private License Server:

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo dpkg -i license-server.deb

6. Make sure that there is a LEASE_ACCOUNTER_TLS_AUTH_ENABLED=true variable at the /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/ path in the license.conf configuration file. If the variable is missing, run the following command:

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo nano /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/license.conf

7. Unzip the keyfile.zip archive, received from an AxxonSoft manager, into the keyfile folder:

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo mkdir keyfile & unzip keyfile.zip -d keyfile

8. Go to the keyfile folder:

   Code Block
   language bash
   cd ./keyfile/

9. Add the ngp.licserver.crt certificate and the ngp.licserver.key private key to the /etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/ directory:

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo cp ngp.licserver.crt ngp.licserver.key

/etc/AxxonSoft/LicenseServer/

Go to the LicenseServer folder:

Code Block

language	bash

cd

Useful commands

Install: 

dpkg -i license-server.deb

Delete:

dpkg -r license-server

Restart the service:

systemctl restart license

Check the status of the service:

systemctl status license

View the service log:

journalctl -u license.service -r

Useful commands using Prometheus metrics

Check the status of the service:

ngp_license_service_status

Where the response is:

• 0—the service is working;
• greater than or equal to 1—there are problems in the service operation.

Check license expiration time:

ngp_license_expire_time_utc

The response contains the time in 64-bit Unix format. To convert the response to date and time format, you can use any available converter (for example, https://timeconverter.online/). For example, 1917820800 corresponds to October 10, 2030 in the value of the license key.
