- Excerpt
- “You receive a license file when you sign up for a Kong Gateway Enterprise subscription. If you purchased a subscription but haven’t received a license file, contact your sales representative. In hybrid and traditional modes, Kong Gateway checks for a license in the following order and loads the license at startup: The contents of the environmental variable KONG_LICENSE_DATA. The default location /etc/kong/license.json. The contents of the file defined by the KONG_LICENSE_PATH environment variable. A license directly deployed with the /licenses Admin API endpoint. Each node independently checks for the license file when the Kong Gateway process starts. Network connectivity isn’t required for license validation.”
