n2disk to become fully functional.
There are two ways to do this:

1. If you have ntopng and wish to closely couple n2disk with ntopng (both installed on the same server), you can apply the license via the ntopng section “Using ntopng with n2disk”_.

2. Using n2disk as a stand-alone application, the license must be placed in a one-line file ``/etc/n2disk.license``.

.. _Using ntopng with n2disk: https://www.ntop.org/guides/ntopng/using_with_other_tools/n2disk.html

Both methods will enable n2disk operation with other ntop applications subject to the n2disk configuration including the “-u=<app name>”...e.g. “-u=ntopng”

.. note::

An n2disk restart is recommended once the license has been applied
to make sure all the new functionalities will be unlocked.
