Plan Your License Server Configuration
You must decide which license server model to use for managing your Autodesk
product licenses on a server. Autodesk supports the following network license
server models:
■ Single license server model
■ Distributed license server model
■ Redundant license server model
Single License Server Model
In the single license server model, the Network License Manager is installed
on a single server, so license management and activity is restricted to this
server. A single license file represents the total number of licenses available
on the server.
Advantages of the Single License Server Model
■ Because all license management takes place on a single server, you have
just one point of administration and one point of failure.
■ Of the three license server models, this configuration requires the least
amount of maintenance.
