What is the default licensing mode applied to the CUAE?
Resolution
SDK Mode is the default installation with no additional licenses applied. This version will auto-license itself with a small number of resources so it is ready to use right away. Once any license is applied, whether it is for the application server or the media engine, all components on that server will no longer be in SDK mode. It is possible to revert back to 'SDK mode' by removing all licenses and restarting the media engine.
