If you see a license-related alert, such as "Cannot retrieve license information" immediately after logging in to the Web Console, the license may not have been issued successfully due to a temporary **network/connectivity issue** during instance provisioning or a communication issue with the **license server**.

3. If the license authentication alert/error message disappears, the License Key has been applied successfully. You can then use all OvenMediaEngine Enterprise features normally.
4. Run a basic streaming test by following the "[Post-Setup Verification for OvenMediaEngine Enterprise](https://ovenmediaengine-enterprise.gitbook.io/guide/exclusive/getting-started-on-aws#post-setup-verification-for-ovenmediaengine-enterprise)" procedure.

If the issue persists, first check the instance’s outbound network connectivity (Security Group rules, route settings, NAT/IGW, etc.) and confirm that the instance can reach the license server.
