Dear all,
I would like to know if there is the opportunity to give a date limitation of LM.
I would like to set a kind of license with an expired date. After that date, LM cannot be longer opened by thr user.
What do you think about that?
Thanks.

You can create deamon app which will change the password if certificate is out of date. LM can ask your server about certificate.

Hi,
Whatever you add with a Library or Daemon is always easy to remove and you will have a basic controller again. So why would you want to do that.
Best way is to add a library without keeping the source with critical functions that they don’t want to lose so they won’t delete it and include your protection there.
BR,
Erwin

Maybe this is a good question. Are there some vendor locks available in LM?
Below is just my idea:
Business case: I offer LM to my client with my software or services included. I don't want to allow my client doing changes in the software because I've taken responsibility about it. But on the other hand the client has to do backups, insert or delete users etc. Which means the client has to be admin of the device.
My idea of these vendor locks can be implemented by signing of the code (like MS PowerShell does). What I need is a storage for my public key and checking script signature before execution. Setting of vendor lock is signed by vendor key. Unsigned change is refused. Untrusted codes can't be executed.
LM5Lp, firmware: 2018.08.22 and 2021.12.15, FlashSYS v2, ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l), kernel 4.4.151 and 4.4.259
