Allied Telesis X330 SERIES LICENSE TO ENABLE OPENFLOW VERSION 1.3 FOR 5 YEAR - AT-FL-X330-OF13-5YR

Allied Telesis AT-FL-X330-OF13-5YR OpenFlow 1.3 Software License

Overview

The AT-FL-X330-OF13-5YR is a 5-year software license that unlocks OpenFlow version 1.3 on Allied Telesis X330 series switches. OpenFlow 1.3 is the protocol that lets an external SDN controller program forwarding rules directly into the switch's flow table — separating the control plane from the data plane. If your network architecture relies on centralized SDN orchestration, this license is the activation key that makes X330 hardware participate in that model rather than running conventional distributed routing. The 5-year term aligns with typical enterprise refresh cycles, avoiding the overhead of annual renewals on a core infrastructure component.

Compatibility

This license applies exclusively to the Allied Telesis X330 series managed switches. It is not transferable to other Allied Telesis product families (X510, X530, X550, or others) and is tied to the specific chassis it is activated on. Verify your switch's series designation before ordering — the X330 line covers compact GbE and SFP-uplink models suited for enterprise edge and wiring closet deployments. If you are deploying OpenFlow across a mixed fleet, confirm that each switch model in your topology has its own corresponding license SKU.

Installation Notes

License activation is performed through the Allied Telesis CLI or AlliedWare Plus management interface. Once applied, OpenFlow 1.3 support is enabled on the switch and the device can be pointed at an OpenFlow-capable SDN controller. Ensure your controller is compatible with OpenFlow 1.3 — not all SDN platforms support every protocol version. The license key is delivered electronically; retain the activation record for asset management and renewal tracking at the 5-year mark.
