The *Licenses section* contains general information on *Licenses to Activate, Active Demos, Active Licenses, and Expired Licenses*.

## Licenses to Activate

This section highlights licenses that have yet to be activated, and shows respectively: license owner, license type, number of concurrent users, and license duration.

Clicking on the row *itself* or on "*Show"*, under the *Actions column*, will extend the menu revealing additional information, namely:

-
  **Product**: what type of product the license is associated with.
- **License Type**: The type of license.
- **Concurrent Users**: The number of concurrent users.
- **Associated PIN**: The PIN associated with the license, which will be used to activate it.

These tables contain information regarding demos and active licenses, namely:

- **The type of license** (demo, single or Bulk), the number of concurrent users.
- **The expiration date of the license**.
- **The working status of the Filter** (green: the DNS Filter is working properly, red: the DNS Filter is not working, we recommend why to check that the Devices in the network are using our DNS or contact technical support).

The *major difference between Demo and License* (single or Bulk) is that the former is a 30-day trial license, while the latter is a 12- or 36-month purchased license.

Extending the menu as in the example above this time will have:

- **Product**: What type of product the license is associated with.
- **License Type**: Type of license (Reseller or End Customer).
- **Concurrent Users**: the number of concurrent users.
- **License Expiration**: The date on which the license expires.
- **Registration Date**: The date on which the demo was activated.
- **Associated PIN**: The PIN associated with that license.

## Expired Licenses

This last part contains information about expired licenses.The fields are:

-
  **The type of license**
- **The number of concurrent users**
- **The date on which it expired**


As in the previous examples extending the menu will appear items similar to those described above, providing, therefore, additional information.
