License Files
The network license file you receive from Autodesk contains licensing
information required for a network installation. You obtain license file data
when you register your Autodesk product.
The license file contains information about network server nodes and vendor
daemons. It also contains an encrypted digital signature that is created when
Autodesk generates the file.
The license file is located on your license server in the location that you specify
when you save the license file from the RegisterOnce Web page, or using the
license information that Autodesk emails to you.
NOTE If you are already running a network license server for a separate Autodesk
product, such as 3ds max, you must append the contents of your Maya license
file to the contents of the license file for the other Autodesk product. See Example
of a License File for Combined Autodesk Product Versions
on page 91.
The following table defines each license file parameter.
