General Information

Summary

MikroTik RouterOS software has a licensing system with Software License (Software Key) issuedfor each individual installation of the RouterOS.

SpecificationsPackages required: systemLicense required: level1Home menu level: /system licenseHardware usage: Not significantDescription

The Software License can be obtained through the Account Server at www.mikrotik.com after theMikroTik RouterOS has been installed. The Software ID of the installation is required whenobtaining the Software License. Please read the MikroTik RouterOS Basic Setup Guide for detailedexplanation of the installation and licensing process.

RouterOS allows you to use all its features without registration for about 24 hours from the firstrun. Note that if you shut the router down, the countdown is paused, and it is resumed only whenthe router is started again. During this period you must get a key, otherwise you will need toreinstall the system. A purchased license key allows you to use RouterOS features according to thechosen license level for unlimited time, and gives you rights to freely upgrade and downgrade itsversions for the term of one year since the key was purchased. A free registred license key (referredas a SOHO key further on) allows you to use a restricted set of functions for unlimited period oftime, but does not allows upgrading and downgrading versions.

There are 6 licensing levels, each providing some additional features. Level 0 means that there is nokey and all the features are enabled for one day. Level 2 is a transitional license level from versions



prior 2.8, that allows to use all the features were allowed by your original license key for a previusversion.
