I am currently using a trial of the URL filtering license and have made the purchase for the full license. Does anyone happen to know if it's a seamless transition from the expired trial to the full license with out any interruption? To initially enable the service I had to reboot my firewalls one at a time, It doesn't make sense that I'd have to do that again, but wondered what the experience was in this transition.

Hello cmateam,
The transition should be pretty smooth and a reboot is not required.
1.) You can delete the expired license using :
> delete license key <key name for the the expired license>
2.) From the web interface, you can Fetch the license under Device > License tab.This should fetch the purchased licenses with new expiration key.
If you are using PAN-DB, you activate it using the following documents:

Hope that helps!
Thanks and regards,

Hello Cmateam,
It should be in a seamless manner.
Please refer below mentioned DOC:
What Happens When Licenses Expire?
Is the Firewall Automatically Aware of License Renewals?
Thanks

For valid license upgrade you dont have to reboot firewall, Devce > License > Retrieve key from Server, will pull new licenses on firewall.
Apply New auth code to Serial No.

Thanks - So I'm a little confused. Is the BrightCloud only use for the trail license, and then when you actually buy its a PAN-DB license for content filtering? I don't see any options under the Trail license to select the Database Download location. This is what I see.
