====== License service ======

----

The **ELIAS License Service** is a utility program ("EliasLicenseService") and is required to run the full version of #@IC_HTML@#. When running the installation wizard ("infra_CONVERT-Setup.exe" in the regular installation package), the license service is automatically installed locally on the computer. However, it can also be downloaded and installed separately ("EliasLicenseService-Setup.msi").\\ 
 **Siehe** Homepage > Service > Download > Software > [[https://www.elias-gmbh.de/en/service/download#icnew|infra CONVERT]] > infra CONVERT Lizenzservice

<WRAP group>
<WRAP column half>

The functions included in the purchased license scope are unlocked accordingly with the license service in #@IC_HTML@#. Without activation #@IC_HTML@# can only be used in the demo version.\\ 
 **See** At a glance > [[en:infra-convert:info#The range of functions basic and pro|The range of functions basic and pro]]

The license service can be installed locally on the same machine where #@IC_HTML@# is running.\\ 
 **See** User manual> Installation > [[en:infra-convert:user:installation:licsingle|Set up a local license]]

However, the license service can also be installed on any computer (server) in a network. Instances of #@IC_HTML@# (clients, users) accessible via the network can then share a license. The clients compete for the seats (concurrent user license model).\\ 
 **See** User manual> Installation > [[en:infra-convert:user:installation:licfloat|Set up a server license]]

As a general rule, the license service must be continuously available during the use of #@IC_HTML@#.

==== Enable port for the license service ====

For the connection to the license service, an HTTPS connection to the specified host is established on port 6781. Make sure that this connection is not blocked by a firewall or redirected by a proxy server.

The following example describes how to release the port on the license server for the license service installed there. The description shows the standard case for the Windows 10 operating system with "Windows Defender Firewall".
