Add CA ARCserve D2D Licensing

CA ARCserve D2D requires you to license your product to receive authorized and uninterrupted access to the related components. In addition, if you want to deploy CA ARCserve D2D to remote locations, license these remote sites to take advantage of the benefits CA ARCserve D2D provides.

CA ARCserve D2D will function for a period of 30 days after you begin using it. Then, apply an appropriate license key to continue using it.

To add CA ARCserve D2D licensing, access the CA ARCserve D2D Monitor Advanced options.
