Specify License
The following notes provide a general overview. For more detailed information,
see the Licensing Guide for your product.
License Types
You can install most Autodesk products for a trial period of 30 days to evaluate
the product. If you purchase a license, it is configured as either stand-alone
or network, and for a specific number of users. These license types are briefly
described as follows:
■ A stand-alone license is intended for use by one person. The licensed
products can be installed on two computers, as long as both instances are
not running concurrently.
■ A multi-seat stand-alone license is intended to support a specified
maximum number of users, but it can be installed on a larger number of
computers for convenient access.
■ A network license supports a specified number of users who are
connected to a network. The Network License Manager is installed on one
or more servers on the network to manage the distribution of licenses to
users.
Network License Server Models
If you are using a network license, choose the server configuration for the
Network License Manager that was specified at the time of license purchase:
■ Single License Server
One server manages all licenses on the network.
■ Distributed License Server
Licenses are distributed across a pool of multiple servers in the network.
You enter the name of each server in the pool.
■ Redundant License Server
Three servers are available to authenticate each license. You enter the
names of the three servers.
