Info

To enable remote access for the License Management tools it is recommended toadd a remote daemon port as an exception:• For the application ’clmrdsvr.exe’ open the local TCP port 19701.Question 18I am using a Firewall on my local client PC. Do I have to open ports on the localclient to enable communication?Yes, to enable clients to check-out or borrow licenses from a server in your localarea network (LAN) you have to add the following ports as exceptions from thefirewall protection:• For the client application (e.g. ’LGO.exe’) open the remote license server TCPport (e.g. 27000) and the remote vendor daemon TCP port (e.g. 27010).You may also look up the ports actually used in the ‘lgs.log’ file or in the‘svr_lgs.lic’ file. Both files can be found on the license server in the licenseserver installation folder, which by default is: C:\Program Files\CommonFiles\Leica Geosystems\License-Server.To enable remote access for the License Management tools it is recommended toadd a remote daemon port as an exception:• For the application ’clmadminsvr.exe’ open the remote TCP port 19701.Question 19I have successfully set up my local license server and I am connected to it viathe local area network. Still, when I install a local client and specify the addressand port of my local license server I get an error message telling me that thedestination is unreachable or that the message expired. What is the reason forthese messages and how can I solve the problem?The reason for these messages may be that the time on your local license serverand the time on your local client are not synchronized. If the time differs by morethan 5 minutes you will get the message ”Destination unreachable”, if it differs bymore than 10 minutes you will get the message ”Message expired”.Please, note that it is no problem if your server runs in a different time zone thanyour client.Leica Geosystems Software Licensing – Introduction & Installation 58

It can be used to view licenses, update licenses, activate newlicenses or return licenses for rehosting.CLM Administrator Server is the License Management Tool for License ServerInstallations of floating licenses. It can be used to view licenses, update licenses,activate new licenses or return licenses for rehosting.A “dongle”, also called hardware key or Software Protection Key, is a smallprotection device that has to be connected to the parallel or USB port of the PC tosecure the software against unauthorized use.The Entitlement Certificate is a document which contains the Entitlement ID. Thisdocument should be kept carefully as the Entitlement ID is required for purchasingadditional software options or Customer Care Packages (CCPs).The Entitlement ID is the key to initial license activation as well as for re-orderingadditional software options or Customer Care Packages (CCPs).The Entitlement ID can be found on the invoice, the delivery note or the EntitlementCertificate.Floating licenses can be shared across multiple users within the same local networkand allow for a simultaneous use up to the number of available purchased licenses.The Leica Geosystems License Server is the central location where all informationon the purchased software licenses is stored. Therefore, an internet connection isrequired for license activation or other tasks to be able to connect to the LeicaGeosystems License Server.The license model defines if a license is tied to a single PC or can be shared acrossdifferent PCs within the same network. For Leica Geosystems products twodifferent license models are available, node locked and floating. The availability ofthe license model depends on the Leica Geosystems software product.A local client is a PC which shares floating licenses within the local network and,therefore, has to be connected to the Local License Server.A Local License Server is required for serving floating licenses. It can be either a PCor server within the local network.Leica Geosystems Software Licensing – Introduction & Installation 59
