VPN Client Lite license key
We purchased 6 SRX5308 firewalls in may of 2011. At that time I didn't know there was a VPN Client for windows available. Now I would like to use it, but I need a license key to install it, which I don't have. Units purchased in 2012 get 5 licence keys, but what about the ones purchased before that date? I don't have the box or the cd anymore, so i can't check what was included... Is it possible to get a license key so I can experiment with the lite version of the client?
SRX5308 - VPN Lite Software 5 Lite licenses
Hello the Netgear Community, I currently have 3 firewall FVX538 purchased in 2008 have been replaced in 2011 by SRX5308 model. I am unable to obtain a license key for the VPN Lite client because it is purchased before 2012. (source: https://my.netgear.com/myNETGEAR/v2/VPNUpgrade/VPNregistration.aspx) I'm sad because I'll only need 2 licenses while I could have 15. Can we still hoped these licenses? Thank you very much Lenny PS: Sorry for my english basic :)
