number of nodes in the datacenter. There are two methods for licensing Consul
|
||||||
|
enterprise.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Included in the Enterprise Package
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you are downloading Consul from Amazon S3, then the license is included
|
||||||
|
in the binary and you do not need to take further action. This is the
|
||||||
|
most common use case.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the S3 bucket you will find three Enterprise zip packages. The packages with `+pro` and
|
||||||
|
`+prem` in the name, are the binaries that include the license. The package
|
||||||
|
with `+ent` in the name does not include the license.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Applied after Bootstrapping
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you are downloading the enterprise binary from the [releases.hashicorp.com](https://releases.hashicorp.com/consul/) or the `+ent` package from Amazon S3, you will need to apply
|
||||||
|
the license to the cluster, after completing the bootstrapping process.
|
||||||
|
You can set the license on any agent within the cluster and it will be
|
||||||
|
forwarded to the leading server via the RPC forwarding functionality.
|
||||||
|
Below are your two options for setting the license file.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can set the license via the
|
||||||
[API](/api/operator/license.html) or the [CLI](/docs/commands/license.html). When
