USB License Dongle
These instructions are not required for Telephony integration, or if your host machine is Ubuntu.
To run a DFSI or ISSI Gateway on a non-Ubuntu machine, the license dongle must be plugged into a USB port accessible by the VM where the radio gateway will be deployed.
If you are deploying to an Ubuntu OS, or if you are deploying a Telephony Gateway, then skip to the Organizing Directories section.
To connect the license dongle
Determine the address of the license dongle. This address must be provided in a specific format as shows below where <bus> and <device> must be replaced:
/dev/bus/usb/<bus>/<device>:/dev/bus/usb/<bus>/<device>
To determine the address of the license dongle, log in to the VM that you intend to host the Radio Gateway and enter the lsusb command. This command returns a list of all USB devices on the VM. The license dongle contains KEYLOK II as shown below:
iceadmin@ice:~$ lsusb
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 07f2:0001 Microcomputer Applications, Inc. KEYLOK II
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:0aa7 Intel Corp. Wireless-AC 3168 Bluetooth
Use the Bus and Device ID for the license dongle and update the address as shown in the following example:
/dev/bus/usb/003/003:/dev/bus/usb/003/003
Save this string for future use. This information will be required for later configuration.
