Enter all the required fields:

  • Reseller Name: Must be a valid Reseller Name that is registered with the E-MetroTel Serial Number Management system.(Note: this field is only emtpty if the unit is still in “In Stock” status on the E-MetroTel Serial Number Management system.  The Reseller Name will be pre-populated on the form if the unit has been moved to “Sold To” status on the E-MetroTel Serial Number Management system.)
  • Reseller Email: Must be a valid reseller email address registered to the account associated with the Reseller Name (shown on the previous line item) within the E-MetroTel Serial Number Management system.
  • Customer Name: The name of the customer that the system is being configured for (No verification)
  • Customer Email: The email address of the customer that the system is being configured for (No verification)
  • Customer Phone: The phone number of the customer that the system is being configured for (No verification)
  • Site Name: The name of the customer site where this system is located (No verification)

All of these items are required to be entered before the system can be activated, but the only item that is verified for accuracy is the Reseller Email.  The Customer information allows both the reseller and E-MetroTel to more readily identify particular systems.

After the required information has been input, click Activate.  The Galaxy system will send the entered data to the E-MetroTel Serial Number Management system to verify the Reseller Email and Serial Number.

Upon successful activation, navigate to the License Details page to verify the license installed.
