FlexNet Publisher Setup (Server)

The FlexNet Publisher (server) controls the number of license copies of a software product. The FlexNet Publisher can be installed on Windows and Unix/Linux machines. Client machines must be able to access the server over the Local Area Network (LAN).

MDK supports single-server FLexNet floating license installations. You can only use the ARM License Manager to set up single-server floating licenses. A multiple-server floating license configuration must be set up manually.

Steps to set up the server:

1. Before you start...
2. Retrieve a FlexNet License File
3. Download FlexNet Publisher Software
4. Install FlexNet Publisher Software
5. Adapt FlexNet License File
6. Start FlexNet Publisher
7. Shut down FlexNet Publisher
8. Rehost FlexNet License
9. Transfer FlexNet License
