I'm confused by the item about VPN licenses. I thought the license is installed on the client, not the firewall. To date we have installed VPN licenses on only a few clients; and I don't remember any licensing process on the GB-1000 to get them to work - it was only on the client computers we needed to register the VPN licenses.
