Which license do I have to buy?
We have changed the old licensing system of 'Single User License' and 'Corporate License'. Basically
there are two different licenses available now: 'Autodoc für WatchGuard' and 'Autodoc for
Fortinet'. Additionally there exist licenses for different numbers of firewalls you want to create documentation for
(1, up to 10, up to 20, up to 50, unlimited). It's not relevant anymore whether you create documents for your own
firewalls or for your customer's firewalls. Just the number has to bee correct.
ATTENTION: The license for one firewall
(1 Unit) does not allow to change header and footer of the report printed out. Commandline batch HTML export
is also not possible with the 1 Unit license.

How much licenses do I need for a Firewall-Cluster?
A cluster of two firewalls (active-active or active-passive) counts as one firewall for Autodoc. That
means, that you only need one license for the cluster, not two.
