What happens when license keys expire?

[BRIAN ARTHUR]

We might pass our expiration date before we get new licenses purchased. What happens when AV and Anti-Spam keys expire?

[Andreas Mueller · Accepted solution]

Hello Brian,

if a feature key expires, the service for that feature will stop working, however mail processing (receiving, filtering, reporting, delivery, etc) will continue as usual.  In case you have placed the renewal order already, you might contact your Cisco IronPort Sales representative and ask for temporary keys until the renewal is finished, that is often posssible, and will keep you protected.

Hope that helps,

Andreas
