Entering and viewing subscription information
You should receive a subscription key when you purchase Forcepoint Email Security.
If you did not enter the subscription key the first time you opened the Email Security module, enter it on the page . This subscription key can be entered in one appliance and is applied to all the appliances controlled by the Email Security module.
Enter a new key any time you receive one to update your subscription. If your subscription includes the Forcepoint Email Security Hybrid Module, you must register with the email hybrid service every time you enter a new subscription key to establish the connection and synchronize email protection system functions. After you enter a valid subscription key, the expiration date and number of subscribed users are displayed. Purchased subscription features appear in the Subscribed Features list.
There are two different license modes: Forcepoint Email Security and Forcepoint DLP Email Gateway. Forcepoint DLP Email Gateway is an alternative to Forcepoint Email Security and provides capability to analyze inbound or outbound mail for data loss or theft. If you use Forcepoint DLP, you can add a subscription key to register Forcepoint DLP Email Gateway. It is not possible to deploy Forcepoint DLP Email Gateway concurrently with Forcepoint Email Security.
If you enter a new subscription key for a different license mode, the email protection system automatically reloads the configuration to provide access to the functionality available with the subscription. All menu options are available with a new installation of Forcepoint Email Security. If you register a new Forcepoint DLP Email Gateway license, the email protection system automatically updates to allow access to Forcepoint DLP Email Gateway menu options. See Forcepoint Email Security versus Forcepoint DLP Email Gateway for a comparison table of the menu options available in each product.
