10 days into demo - license has expired
Downloaded and set up demo.
Shut the machine down to install an extra NIC and I get your license has expired.
Can the demo only use three Nics?
The date is correct, the only clue might be an install in 2008?

I guess I did not read the install notes?
It appears that the demo is crippled to only 3 NICs.
(Removed the 4th NIC and it worked)

Hmm... I was able to install 7.380 on my home firewall with 4 nics, boot up, log in, run the wizard, and load my config backup.
Dunno if that helps.

Hi Tom,
As Astaro isn't a plug and play system, the drivers and NIC installations/changes are not detected and installed at boot up. If as you say, you added a NIC after you installed the product, just make a backup, re-install with the desired hardware, (which will trigger the hardware installation process again) then restore the backup. There won't be a licensing issue with using more than 3 NICs.
Cheers,
-Angelo

What Angelo said... when installing new NICs, you'll want to backup your configuration, shutdown the system, install the hardware, then reinstall and restore you configuration.

Good to know!

I believe the newer 120s have 4 ports now.
