The format of the License Key Information is very important and must be strictly followed. It is intended for other applications to parse and make use of the information. The string is made up of many parts of text information. Each part has the format of the form Token: information_string\n,. Each part consists of a token followed by token information. The end of each part is marked by a new line character, and a comma or a null character. The total length of the string cannot exceed 256 octets.

What is licenseKeyDescStringInformation?

A structured text string (up to 1024 octets) describing an installed license key, with tagged fields for Description (e.g. "NetCorp 12 Port License Key Upgrade for Fibre Switch"), Date-Time installed, License-ID, and Other-Info. An admin's tooling parses this to show what feature each installed license key actually unlocks.
