Activation of the application is required when you want to switch from a trial license to a commercial license or to replace the current license with a new one.
To activate the application:
- Open the Kaspersky Security for Microsoft Office 365 Management Console.
- In the left part of the page, select the License section.
- If you want to assign a commercial license to the application running in trial mode, click the Switch to commercial license button.
If you want to replace the current license, click the Replace button.
The Activating application section opens.
- In the Enter activation code field, enter the activation code in the XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX format.
- Click Continue.
Kaspersky Security for Microsoft Office 365 transmits the entered activation code and the corresponding license ID to Kaspersky's activation servers for verification.
- After the activation code is verified, the following details about the corresponding license are displayed:
- Type—Commercial or Commercial (subscription).
- Owner—The contact person of the company that purchased the license.
- Expiration date—The date and time when the current license expires. The time format specified in the application settings is applied.
- License limit—The maximum number of mailboxes or OneDrive users you may select for protection under the current license. The number of mailboxes and OneDrive users that use a Kaspersky Security for Microsoft Office 365 license includes only those mailboxes and users to which an Office 365 license is assigned. Protection of resource mailboxes, room mailboxes, and shared mailboxes without an Office 365 license does not require a Kaspersky Security for Microsoft Office 365 license.
Review these details carefully to make sure they are correct.
- Click the Confirm button.
The license is assigned to the application. You can always check the license details in the License section.
Every day, the application connects to Kaspersky activation servers to update information about the current license.
