Take the clone machine off the network, change it's IP address to the
address that the FW is licensed to. It should work now - but remember
this is now a standalone system. If your network is NATd and the
license is to the "Public Interface" you may not need to take the clone
off the net, but till you're finished and put it on a NAT address is is
essentially off the network.
