How to Use Multi-Time Access Codes
Now that you have purchased a Multi-Time Access Code (MTAC) you
can use it to generate passwords for the MTAC type you selected:
operating system releases, features (including restricted features) or
VPN clients. You have the option to generate all your passwords at
once or you can return to the website periodically and generate them
as needed.
Example: You have purchased a single, 25-use MTAC. After logging
onto the website you may:
✧ Generate all 25 passwords in this sitting.
✧ Generate fewer than 25 passwords in this sitting.
If you choose the second option, you can return to the WebGen
website as many times as you like to generate your remaining
passwords. See "Generating Passwords Periodically" on page 4.
MTAC passwords must be generated within one year of purchase. After this
time the MTAC will expire and no passwords can be generated.
There is no minimum number of passwords that must be generated in
each sitting. Each time you return to the WebGen Web site, WebGen
will display any serial numbers and passwords that you have previously
generated, and either spaces or default choices for your remaining
passwords.

distributor and clicking the email it to you link.

Saving Time on Data Entry
Entering many individual serial numbers can be a time-consuming
process. WebGen offers several ways of reducing the time spent on
data entry by automating the process for you.
If you are cutting and pasting many serial numbers from an email or
other document, simply paste all your serial numbers into the space at
the bottom of the screen and click SUBMIT QUERY. WebGen will fill
in the empty serial number slots automatically.
If you are generating new passwords for existing equipment and have
previously used an MTAC to do this, you can reuse the old MTAC to
fill in the serial numbers of the equipment for you. On the screen
where your serial numbers are to be filled in, you will see the section
shown on the right.
Paste serial numbers here and click Submit Query
1. Enter your old MTAC.
2. Enter your password.
3. Click the GET SERIAL NUMBERS button.
WebGen will fill in the empty serial number slots automatically.
