The system that needs to use a floating license, needs access to a license server. The license server runs on a Windows system.* This can be a Windows server 2003, 2008 or 2012 server but also another Windows 7, 8 or 10 workstation or laptop. The license server is light weight and does not need a lot of resources. The license server can service both Windows and Linux clients, as long as they're on the same network.

SLL Server and client mix

How to set up a license server can be found in Setting up an SLL license server. Setting up a license server is done by the License Administrator. This usually is a System Administrator.

To find the license server, the client needs the SLL client configuration file, sll_client.cfg, in one of the locations mentioned below.

* A Linux license server is available for certain Linux distributions upon request. Please send an email to support@marin.nl for more information.
