Information on licences and certificates

• Which versions require which licenses on the same hardware. 
  
  If the second digit of the version (e.g. 3.4.4) differs from the version currently installed (e.g. 3.5.5) you need a new license. If the 3rd digit (e.g. 3.4.4) matches, the same license can be used.
  
  
• Server Certificates: 
  
  All versions of easyDCP/easyDCP Plus can use the same server certificates, as long the hardware has not been reconfigured or a essential OS update system has taken place.
  
  If you need a new license, the creation of the License & Certificate Request checks whether a server certificate already exists and if then applies it to the newly issued license.
  
  
• Signature Certificates:
  
  In principle, new signature certificates are issued for each license activation.
