  • Method, apparatus and computer program product for continuously providing a license to a network element via a remote connection
    Patent number: 10339276
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and a computer program product allow additional features of a software package to be enabled by downloading and activating a corresponding license. More particularly, the methods, apparatuses and computer program product enable a network element, such as transmission equipment of an operator, to request a corresponding license from a server, such as a device management server of a communications provider, via a remote connection, even after a transition period in which all of the software features corresponding to a software package were provided to the operator. The transmission equipment can transmit a request for the corresponding license(s) to the device management server at a time later than the transition period, so that a remote management deadlock situation does not occur.
