Activate/Renew License Key and Add Extension Key for VigorACS

After the installation, you will also need to register the device to your MyVigor account and activate a license key to use the VigorACS service. The license can be purchased from your local distributor, and we provide a 1-month free trial license for each server. Moreover, after the 1-month trial license is expired, you will need a main/extension key to extend the duration or increase the number of nodes.
