You can attach a license from the Licenses & Contracts Repository to a managed Security Gateway. |

When you detach a license from a managed Security Gateway, you have to uninstall the license from that Security Gateway. If this is a Central license, this operation makes that license in the Licenses & Contracts Repository available to other managed Security Gateways. |
|
You can add information from your managed Security Gateways about the licenses you installed locally. This updates the Licenses & Contracts Repository with all local licenses across the installation. The Get operation is a two-way process that places all locally installed licenses in the License & Contract Repository and removes all locally deleted licenses from the Licenses & Contracts Repository. |
