Important: We are rolling out this new, unified activation experience in
stages. For supported SASE products, you may see the new activation console now,
or you maybe directed to use the Hub for activation until the update reaches
your tenant.
The Subscription and Add-ons page in the
Activation Console serves as your singular destination for
all product activation and entitlement management. This unified portal is designed to
streamline the entire process from product acquisition to deployment. Users may now log
in to the Activation Console at any time to view, activate, and
manage all the product entitlements.
Subscriptions and Trials Tab
The Subscriptions and Trial tabs
provide a centralized view of all product entitlements associated with the selected
tenant, enabling customers to monitor, manage, and activate both purchased and trial
products efficiently.
Subscriptions Tab
The Subscriptions tab lists all purchased product
entitlements, displaying critical details such as activation status, tenant
allocation, allocated versus total license quantity, expiration dates, and add-on
availability. These details allow customers to quickly assess whether licenses are
fully activated, partially allocated, or pending activation, and understand how
entitlements are being utilized across tenants.
In the Subscriptions page, you will see the following:
SASE
The SASE tab displays all SASE products associated with the
tenant, including both activated products and those pending activation.
You can activate these products directly from the Activation Console.
Currently, the Activation Console supports activation only for SASE
products.
Firewall and SD-WAN
The Firewall and SD-WAN tab lists all Next-Generation Firewall(NGFW) and SD-WAN products
that are activated on this tenant. For activating Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) and SD-WAN products,
you must follow the activation procedure using Magic links, as
activation through the Activation Console is not supported for these
products.
Trials Tab
The Trials shows all trials that are ready to activate or have
already been activated. Key details include activation status, tenant allocation,
allocated versus total trial license quantity, expiration dates, and associated
add-ons. This ensures customers can track trial usage and manage trial product
activations effectively.
Both tabs include robust search and filtering capabilities, allowing users to locate
specific product entitlements using product name, entitlement group ID, activation
status, or other displayed attributes. This functionality makes it easy to navigate
large volumes of product entitlements and ensures quick access to the information
needed for decision-making and license management.
Subscriptions List
In both the Subscriptions and Trials
tabs, you can view a list of your product entitlements along with high-level
subscription details for each product:
Product – Displays the product name and the product
Entitlement group ID (previously called Serial no). If the product
supports trial add-on activation, a Request Add-On
Trial button is available to request it.
Description – Displays the base product license
associated with the product entitlement.
Allocated/Total – Lists the quantity of allocated
licenses on your tenant compared to the total available.
Add-Ons – Displays the number of available trial and
purchased add-ons. Hover over this field to view details, such as
whether an add-on is already activated or ready to activate.
Allocated Tenants – Shows the number of tenants for
which licenses are allocated.
Status – Indicates the activation status of the product,
such as:
Needs Activation
Needs Activation, Contains Future Dated
Activation in Progress
Active Fully Allocated
Active Partially Allocated

Activation Failed
Expiration Date – Shows the license expiration date.
Actions – Provides options to activate a product, launch the
product UI, or view details.
View Subscription Details
You can access detailed information for a specific product entitlement by clicking
View Details from the Activation
Console. This opens a dedicated page where you can examine the
activation status, license information, and entitlement identifiers for the selected
product. Key details such as the start date, expiry date, and
entitlement group ID are clearly displayed to provide
complete visibility into the product entitlement.
Subscription Details
The Details tab presents comprehensive information about the
selected product entitlement, organized into several sections:
Tenants – Displays all tenants associated with the
product, including the tenant name and license allocation quantity for
each tenant.
Description – Shows details of the base product,
including the product name, total allocated licenses, and remaining
available quantity.
Purchased Add-Ons – Lists all purchased add-ons along
with their activation status and license allocation.
Trial Add-Ons – Displays all active trial add-ons and
their respective allocation.
Future Entitlements – If the product license has a future start date,
this section shows the future start and expiry dates for the
entitlement.
Activate and Manage License
From the View Details page, you can also perform key actions to manage your
licenses:
Activate – Activate a license for the selected product, whether it is
a purchased license or a trial license. To activate, click Activate and
provide the required product information.
Manage – For products that are already activated, you can manage
licenses by performing actions such as reallocating licenses to different
tenants or activating add-ons.
Help and Support
The Help and Support tab provides all the essential product
details needed when creating a support ticket. This ensures support engineers have
the necessary context to address issues quickly and efficiently.
Tenants Browser
In the left pane, you will see a tenant browser. If your environment has only one
tenant, the browser displays the primary tenant, and all related subscription and
trial details automatically appear in the Subscriptions and
Trials tabs. If your environment includes multiple
tenants, the tenant browser presents a hierarchical view, starting with the root
tenant at the top level, followed by the child tenants you have access to. You can
search for and select a tenant to view its corresponding product entitlements,
subscription details, and license allocations. This structure allows you to easily
navigate between tenants and ensures that you always view and manage information in
the correct context.
