A remote management method permits the management of a license on a network element in a telecommunications network. One or more features on the network element are enabled for a predetermined time according to a license provided to the network element. Management data is sent to and received from the network element on a first management data connection. User traffic utilizing the one or more features is sent to and received from the network element on a second user data connection. The second user data connection is distinguishable from and controllable independently of the first management data connection. If the license expires, then the second user data connection is blocked, and license management data is downloaded to the network element over the first management data connection while the second user data connection is blocked. The license on the network element is renewed using the license management data downloaded over the first management data connection. After the license is renewed, the user data connection is unblocked.
