Overview

When the trial evaluation period expires, the Kerio Control should be registered in order to receive constant firewall protection. The registration process can be done through Kerio Control Webadmin Dashboard directly or by following the registration wizard in the Kerio Product registration website.

Once the installation is completed, Kerio Control needs to be activated as a trial or full version.

If your trial version is registered, the license file is automatically imported to your product within 24 hours of the purchase. The Trial ID you entered for your product upon registration is then activated as a standard license number.

Additionally, after a license is renewed, it will not immediately reflect the changes in Kerio Control. Using the steps below, you can force the renewed license to be pushed to the appliance immediately.
