License keys
After you install IBM QRadar, you must apply your license keys.
Your system includes a temporary license key that provides you with access to QRadar software for five weeks. After you install the software and before the default license key expires, you must add your purchased licenses.
The following table describes the restrictions for the default license key:

When you purchase a QRadar product, an email that contains your permanent license key is sent from IBM®. These license keys extend the capabilities of your appliance type and define your system operating parameters. You must apply your license keys before your default license expires.
