Subscriptions are monthly paid entitlements. They can be divided into two main types:
•per-user per-month user subscriptions.
•per-month application subscriptions for selected applications.
In order to use subscriptions, the system must be configured with:
oAn IP route to the customer network's default gateway for external internet traffic.
oThe IP address of the customer network's DNS server.
oAn accurate time source (the default used is time.google.com).
Subscription for an IP Office Subscription mode system are ordered from the Avaya Channel Marketplace, using the ID number of the system SD card installed in the system.
•The card's ID number is printed on the card's label after PLDS ID, FK SN or FK depending on the age of the card. On newer cards is a 12-digit number. Older cards may have a 10-digit number. For IP Office Subscription mode, add an 11 prefix to the 10-digit number.
Once ordered, details of the unique customer number for the system and address of its subscription server are supplied in an email. That subscription email is sent to the address specified during the order. Those details are then used during the initial system configuration.
Each user on the system requires a subscription. All subscribed users are able to use a telephone extension (analog, digital or IP) and voicemail features.
The following user subscriptions can be ordered. They are applied to individual users through their User Profile setting. That then controls which other settings can also be selected for the user as shown below.

•By default, users on a new or defaulted system are configured as Telephony User users.
•Users without a subscription are shown as Non-licensed User and cannot use any system features.
•If there are insufficient subscriptions for the number of users configured for a particular profile, some of those users will not receive any services. On Avaya feature phones, they appear as logged out and any attempt to log in displays a "No license available" warning.
