  • Hi,

    you will need a licence for each site and then software licence is different to a hardware licence. Software licences are based on the number IP addresses where as hardware licences are unlimited IP addresses.

  • You have a base license in XG, which generally speaking allows the firewall rule / NAT, Wireless and VPN. 

    So to speak you could purchase another virtuell base license without subscription for the other branches and build a VPN to use the protection features in the HQ. 

    You cannot decouple the subscription of the hardware to use on the Software.
