The central part of the window displays information about the license key which is currently used by the server. To see
details about all license keys present on the server, click the Details… button.
ERAS is capable of selecting the most relevant license key and merging multiple keys into one. If there is more than one
license key uploaded, ERAS will always try to find the key with the most clients and furthest expiration date.
The ability to merge multiple keys works if all keys are owned by the same customer. Merging licenses is a simple process
which creates a new key containing all clients involved. The expiration date of the new license key becomes the expiration
date of the key that would expire first.
The bottom part of the License Manager window is dedicated to notifications when there is a problem with licenses. The
available options include:
Warn if the server is about to expire in 20 days – Displays a warning X days before license expires
Warn only if this will cause the number of clients in the license to fall below the number or actual clients in the
server database – Activate this option to only show a warning if the expiration of the license key or a part of the license
will cause a decrease in the number of clients below the number of currently connected clients, or clients in the ERAS
database
Warn if there is only 10% free clients left in the server license – Server will display a warning if the number of free
client slots falls under specified value (in %)
ERAS is capable of merging multiple licenses from multiple customers. This feature must be activated by a special key. If
you need a special key, please specify it in your order, or contact your local ESET distributor.
8.7 Advanced settings
To access ERA Advanced settings, click Tools > Server Options > Advanced > Edit Advanced Settings.
Advanced settings include the following:
Maximum disk space usage (percent)
When exceeded, some server features may not be available. When connecting to ERAS, ERAC displays a notification if
the limit is exceeded.
Communication protocol encoding
Defines the type of encoding. We recommend the default setting.
Enable MAC address renaming (from unknown to valid)
After reinstalling from an ESET client solution that does not support sending a MAC address (e.g., ESET NOD32 Antivirus
2.x) to a client solution that does (e.g., a 3.x client), the old client record will be converted to the new one. We
recommend the default setting (Yes).
Enable MAC address renaming (from valid to unknown)
After reinstalling from an ESET client solution that does support sending a MAC address (e.g., ESET NOD32 Antivirus 3.x)
to a client solution that does not (e.g., a 2.x client), the old client record will be converted to the new one. We
recommend the default setting (No).
Enable MAC address renaming (from valid to another valid)
Enables renaming of valid MAC addresses. The default value does not allow for renaming, which means that the MAC
address is a part of the unique identification of clients. Disable this option if there are multiple entries for one PC. We
also recommend disabling this option if a client is identified as the same client after the MAC address has been changed.
Enable computer name renaming
Allows for renaming of client computers. If disabled, the computer name will be a part of the unique identification of
clients.
Also use default server logon during push installation
ERAS allows the user to set the username and password for logon script and email remote installation only. Enable this
option to use the predefined values also for remote push installations.
