synology surveillance station license generator

If more licenses are required, new ones can be added up to the maximum number of surveillance devices as supported by your Synology device.

By default, you would have default licenses that come with Synology NASNVR; extra licenses can be purchased for additional surveillance devices as your business grows.

Synology also provides three options for additional purchased licenses: 1, 4 or 8 Surveillance Device License Packs; each comes with a single license key, allowing you to activate 1, 4 or 8 surveillance devices at a time.

However, multi-lens cameras and video servers for analog cameras may require additional licenses.

For more details about supported cameras and surveillance devices, please refer to the Camera Support List and Surveillance Device Support List.

Each regular and panoramic camera requires one license only.

Most fixed lens cameras providing more than one stream at a time require only one license per camera.

For fixed lens cameras with independent IP addresses or removable lens cameras, you will need one license per channel.

If you want to display all three channels in Surveillance Station, you will need three licenses.

Axis F44 (with as many as four lenses) allows you to stream up to five channels, with four of the channels displaying footage from the four lenses, and the fifth channel combining the view of all four cameras.

If you wish to display all five channels in Surveillance Station, you will need five licenses accordingly.

The installation wizard will guide you through adding device licenses into Surveillance Station.

You only need to purchase extra licenses when your deployment requires more licenses than the default ones listed below.

If your NAS is designed to work in an offline environment, you can use DS cam to process the license authorization.

Please be sure to keep the license keys and the proof of purchase (e.g., invoice or receipt) afterward in a safe place.

If the keys are lost, Synology will not provide any replacements or lookup services.

Furthermore, we highly recommend signing in to Synology Account on your device from DSM Control Panel.

In some situations, such as when a hardware replacement is needed, Synology Account can authenticate your ownership of the license keys.

Please note that you will still need to enter the license keys after signing in to Synology Account on the new device.).

In case of hardware replacement, you can either reactivate the licenses on a new Synology device by deactivating them on the original device first or follow the migration process (depending on whether you still have access to the original device).

However, If you have multiple NAS and would like to share default or purchased licenses between these devices, you can setup Centralized Management System (CMS) on Surveillance Station.

The CMS host will manage the licenses owned by the recording servers in the central management system, thus maximizing the licenses utilization.

You can either use Surveillance Station Client on an Internet-connected computer or DS cam app on a mobile device.
