2 Network Installation Procedure
Setting Up a Network installation
For network installations. The MathWorks uses a license manager program,
FLEXnet Publisher Licensing Module, a product of Macrovision Corporation.
To set up a network installation, you must install the license manager as well
as the MathWorks products you purchased. You use the MathWorks Installer
to perform both installations.
Before you install MATLAB in a network installation, you must decide what
type of configuration you want to set up. This decision determines how many
installations you need to perform. This section describes these options.
Using the MathWorks Installer, you can set up a network installation with
little knowledge of license management software. However, if you want
to integrate the MathWorks products into an already established license
management scheme, you may need a more thorough understanding of
product licensing. For an overview of how The MathWorks uses FLEXnet, see
Chapter 3, "License Management".
