This file contains the information about your license purchase and the serial number. You need to enter thisfile during the installation process to request and get the license certificate file (license.crt) and the private key file (license.pvk). These two files together complete your license. You also generate the masthead file (masthead.afxm) during the installation, which contains the information about your BigFix deployment. References:
