1. Base license: to manage the device and self-provision.

2. Controller license: to generate and manage the settings in the data model.

3. Visualizer license: for traffic visibility (in development). Alternatively, you can use the platform Teldat Visualizer for the visibility of traffic (requires device license) separately from CNM.
