2. Click Add Product. Find the floating-license file, select it, and click Open to obtain the FLI and CID information for that computer.
3. Visit the webpage from the computer that is connected to the internet and enter the information.
4. Within a few minutes you will receive a License ID Code (LIC) via an automated e-mail process. Activate the software product, by entering the LIC in the field New License ID Code (LIC) and clicking Add LIC.

Note

• If you do not know the location of the Floating License File (*.FLF), contact your License Administrator.
• Do not change any Network Connection on your computer during the registration process. The CID encodes various parameters including network adapter information. After product activation, the network adapter can change, as it is the case on portable Notebooks with various network connections.
• The CID encodes several computer parameters including a time information. Therefore the CID changes daily. However, you may install a LIC at any time, provided the same Network Connection is active.
