License Server
The License Server Manager and the vendor daemon make up the
License Server system. The License Server Manager is the main point of
contact for FLEX-enabled applications, which require license certificates.
These applications then redirect to the appropriate vendor daemon.
Note: License Server must not be a member of a workgroup
The License Server contains Licenses certificates.
Because the License Server components are lightweight, you can install
the components on any machine, which runs one of the following operating
systems
•
Microsoft Windows 2000
• Microsoft Windows 2000 Server
•
Microsoft Windows XP
• Microsoft Windows 2003 Server
•
Microsoft Windows Vista
The Licensing Server requires ports 27000 and 27001 to be accessible.
You can modify the TCP/IP port number of the License Server Manager
(lmgrd) in the Server line. For information about modifying the Server line,
see “License file” (page 212).
How to configure ports for licensing
The following are the steps to configure ports for licensing:
1. The 2050 starts to send the TCP packets to the license server. The IP
address and port are retrieved from the 2050 settings (License Servers
prop page). If no port information is typed, the default range (27000
- 27009) is used. If you need to change this port range, you need to
make changes on both sides: 2050 settings and license file (SERVER
line). Make sure that this port is opened and listened on by server.
Settings
The settings -> License Servers prop page: 172.2.2.2:27001
the counted.lic file: SERVER this_host HOSTNAME=host-1.corp.norte
l.com PORT=27001
2. The vendor daemon starts to work and uses the random port for server
(it is not random always). The vendor information is transmitted to
2050 client by the Server Manager and the 2050 starts to send the
TCP packets to this port.
To control the port for vendor daemon you need to change the
VENDOR line in counted.lic file.
