Network License Activation Utility
With the Network License Activation utility, you can obtain licenses over the
Internet, which saves time and effort in setting up a network licensed Autodesk
product.
In addition, the utility registers your product, provides automated support for
email if you cannot obtain a license over the Internet, and saves and migrates
license files automatically so that you don't have to.
NOTE It is recommended that you use the Network License Activation utility to
obtain your license file. However, if you are unable to connect to the Internet to
obtain a license file, see Use the Network License Activation Utility on page 37.
