| - | |||

| - | <WRAP column half> | ||
| - | A multi-user license enables concurrent use of #@IC_HTML@# on a specific number of workstations (clients) simultaneously (Concurrent User Licensing Model). The clients obtain their temporary license over the network from the ELIAS License Service, which manages the multi-user, single-user licenses. The PC (ideally a server) on which the license service is installed should therefore be constantly accessible. | ||

Then establish the connection to the licence server by entering the network address of the server in #@IC_HTML@#. | ||

| - | |< 100% 5% 15% 40% 40%>| | ||
| - | ^ Step ^^ Action ^ Result ^ | ||
| - | ^ 1 ^ Install License Service | **1)** Install the license service "EliasLicenseService" on the server. You can download the installation file from [[https://www.elias-gmbh.de/en/service/downloads#icnew|Download area]] on our main pages.\\ \\ **Note** The license server task can be performed by any PC in the network, including a client. However, it is recommended not to use a desktop PC due to the requirement for constant availability. | **1)** The license service is installed. | | ||
| - | ^ ::: ^ ::: | **2)** Make sure that the license service is allowed to use the incoming port. An example of how to [[en:infra-convert:user:installation:licfloat#Enable port for the license service|enable the port for the license service]] is described at the bottom of this page. | **2)** The license service can be accessed from outside. | | ||
| - | ^ 2 ^ Install #@IC_HTML@# | Install #@IC_HTML@# on any client PC as described in Installation > [[en:infra-convert:user:installation:workflow|installation]]. | #@IC_HTML@# is installed. | | ||
| - | ^ 3 ^ Enter path to license server | **1)** Start #@IC_HTML@#. | **1)** The "License Information" dialog box opens:\\ {{ en:infra-convert:user:installation:lizenzinformationen_keine_lizenz_neuer_dialog.png?nolink&400 | }}\\ \\ Appearance up to programme version 2.4.7:\\ {{ en:infra-convert:user:installation:lizenzinformationen_keine_lizenz.png?nolink&400 | }} | | ||
| - | ^ ::: ^ ::: | **2)** Under "Licence service", select the setting **Server**. Enter the address of the licence server in the network, for example in the form of the host name or the IP address. Only change the port "6781" if you are sure. Press **Enter** or **Update** {{:en:infra-convert:user:interface:refresch_license.png?nolink&13|}}.\\ \\ **Note** Up to programme version 2.4.7, enter the server address directly without having to switch to Server. | **2)** Host and port are correctly specified when a new registration key is displayed and the possibility to load a licence is given.\\ {{ en:infra-convert:user:installation:lizenzinformationen_server_verbunden.png?nolink&400 | }} | | ||
| - | ^ 4 ^ Request a license | **1)** Click on the button **Request license** {{:en:infra-convert:user:interface:request_license.png?nolink&13|}} to create an e-mail message.\\ \\ **Important** Specify the license type "multi-user license" in the mail.\\ \\ **Alternatively** Create your own e-mail message containing the registration key displayed and your contact information (name, company, address, phone, e-mail address). Please do not send us a screenshot of the dialog box, but copy the key, for example by clicking on the button **Copy to clipboard** {{:en:infra-convert:user:interface:copy_key.png?nolink&17|}}. Transmission errors can simply occur when typing. | **1)** In the e-mail program, which is set as the standard program/app on the PC, a ready-made message is opened. This contains the registration key and a list in which you can enter your contact data. | | ||
| - | ^ ::: ^ ::: | **2)** Send the e-mail to your CAQ/MES system provider if you purchase #@IC_HTML@# from them, or to info@elias-gmbh.de if you purchased #@IC_HTML@# directly from us. | **2)** You will receive the license file within one working day. | | ||
| - | ^ 5 ^ Activate licence | **1)** Click on the **Load licence** button in the "Licence information" dialogue box (up to programme version 2.4.7: {{:en:infra-convert:user:interface:load_license.png?nolink&13|}}). | **1)** The file explorer opens. | | ||
| - | ^ ::: ^ ::: | **2)** Select the licence file (*.lic) and click **Open**.\\ \\ **Note** Please save the licence file. | **2)** The "Licence information" dialogue box shows that the licence is valid:\\ {{ en:infra-convert:user:installation:lizenzinformationen_mehrplatz_lizenz_gueltig_neuer_dialog.png?nolink&400 | }}\\ \\ Appearance up to programme version 2.4.7:\\ {{ en:infra-convert:user:installation:lizenzinformationen_mehrplatz_lizenz_gueltig.png?nolink&400 | }}\\ \\ You can load another licence file at any time using the **Load licence** button. This overwrites the previous licence. | | ||
| - | ^ 6 ^ #@IC_HTML@# auf Clients installieren | From now on, install #@IC_HTML@# on the client PCs as described in steps 2 and 3. | If this has been enabled by setting (see "Settings > Settings > General > [[en:infra-convert:user:config:general#license_server_group|“License server” group]]), the status is displayed in addition to which users occupy individual licences. {{ en:infra-convert:user:installation:lizenzinformationen_mehrplatz_lizenz_gueltig_monitoring.png?nolink&400 | }}\\ \\ **Note** This function is available from programme version 2.4.11 and requires the licence service from version 1.6.1.0. | | ||

| - | ==== Unlock port for the license service ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | For the connection to the license service, an HTTPS connection to the specified host is established on port 6781. It must be ensured that this connection is not blocked by a firewall or redirected by a proxy server. | ||
| - | |||
| - | In the following example is discribed how to unlock the port on the license server for the license service installed on this server. Described is the standard case for the operating system Windows 10 with "Windows Defender Firewall". | ||

| - | |||
| - | **Troubleshooting** | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Make sure the license server information (host and port) is correct. | ||
| - | * Make sure that you have an active network connection to the license server. | ||
| - | * Make sure that no firewall prevents communication with the license server. If necessary, configure the firewall on the server so that the "LicenseServer.exe" can use any input ports. | ||
