To use the functionality of Control Manager 5.0, managed products (OfficeScan, ScanMail for Microsoft Exchange), and other services (Outbreak Prevention Services, Damage Cleanup Services, or Vulnerability Assessment), you need to obtain Activation Codes and activate the software or services. Included with the software is a Registration Key that you use to register your software online to the Trend Micro Online Registration Web site and obtain an Activation Code.
As managed products register to Control Manager, the managed products add their Activation Codes to the managed product Activation Code list on the Managed Product License Management screen. Administrators can add new Activation Codes to the list and redeploy renewed Activation Codes.
