There are so many issues involved with changing addressing in a DR
scenario, I do everything in my power to avoid having to do that.  If
you are taking addresses from an upstream my .02 is to talk to your
upstream and see if you can integrate them into your DR plan (they'll
usually charge you a fee but it's well worth it).  Then way you can call
them as part of your disaster declaration procedure and they will
provision the changes to allow you to use your addressing from the
recovery site.

Assuming that the above is out of scope for the discussion, why not
generate an eval key on CP's website as part of your recovery site
turnup?  Just make sure you have a unused certificate key in your DR
materials hehe.

Subject: [FW-1] Disaster Recovery Testing and Licenses


Hello everyone,
        If anyone out there performs any kind of DR testing, how do you
go about handling the license? Obviously, it is tied to a specific IP
address, and this poses an issue when assigned a different IP at the DR
testing facility.
TIA!
