Volume License Server

Making deployment at scale easy

VLS

Telium is pleased to offer customers a Volume License Server (VLS) option, which allows our various products to run activated without the need for a local USB dongle, cloud activation, or a hardware fingerprint.  The VLS product is popular with ITSP’s/telcos who run hundreds or thousands of clusters and need the ability to deploy new telephony services on short notice, and also popular with customers who run fewer products but cannot use USB dongles or hardware fingerprint activation and have no internet access.

Customers can run the VLS inside a virtual machine (with limitations) or natively on Telium provided hardware as shown below.   Normally one VLS is placed in each data center/region which is deemed to be a self sufficient operating zone.  Please contact Telium for pricing information or more sophisticated deployments.  Note that pricing depends on the minimum and maximum number of licenses the VLS must serve and other features.

Virtual Machine

Telium will provide you with a (encrypted) virtual machine image, preconfigured with Linux and the VLS server.  The VM will be in VMware ESXi 6/7/8 format,  and delivered as a single ZIP file.  You can optionally convert the included VMDK file to another hypervisor if you wish.  This option availability is restricted to large scale deployments.

DIN Rail Mount Appliance

Telium will provide you with a DIN-rail mount computer, preconfigured with Linux and the VLS server. The computer is low power, low heat emissions, fanless (optionally) and uses a solid state disk to reduce the risk of failure.

Wall Mount Appliance

Telium will provide you with a wall mount computer, preconfigured with Linux and the VLS server. The computer is low power, low heat emissions, fanless (optionally), and uses a solid state disk to reduce the risk of failure.

Rackmount Appliance

Telium will provide you with a 19″ rackmount computer, preconfigured with Linux and the VLS server. The computer is low power, low heat emissions, and uses a solid state disk to reduce the risk of failure.  Depending on the number of simultaneous activations required the device may be fanless or actively cooled, and range in size from 1U to 3U.  The device may include front-panel management of the VLS from an LCD panel.
