Juniper Mist Subscriptions Scope
Juniper Mist provides subscriptions at both the organization level and the site level.
When applied organization-wide, a subscription is not tied to any specific hardware or site. Instead, each license added to the organization increases the number of a device that can use the feature across the entire organization.
Alternatively, you can apply subscriptions at the site level for specific features. If a feature subscription is enabled for a particular site, it will only impact that site. All access points (APs) assigned to it will consume the corresponding subscription.

Examples
Organization-Level Subscriptions
Consider an organization with 10 sites and 100 devices. These 100 devices require 802.1X. Then you’ll need 100 subscriptions and you'll need to apply them at the organization level. Here, licenses are calculated at the organization level. You can move devices across sites. As long as the total subscription count stays within the subscriptions purchased (100), devices can use the feature.
Site-Level Subscriptions
Consider an organization with 10 sites and 100 devices. Suppose 20 devices in five sites of the organization need Marvis and the remaining devices in the other five sites do not require Marvis. Then, you can enable only five sites and apply 20 subscriptions. These 20 subscriptions are utilized among the devices within these five sites.
