Licensing Components
SERVER Line
The SERVER line identifies the system on which the license manager is
running, using the format
SERVER hostname HostID TCP_PortNumber
where
• hostname is the name of your license server, i.e., the system on which the
license manager is running.
• hostID is the host ID ofthe license server. The host ID in the SERVER line
must match the host ID in the comment section of the License File.
• TCPPortNumber specifies the TCP/IP port to use for communication with
the license manager daemon. Do not change this number unless you know
it conflicts with other software. A valid port number is any unused port
number between 0 and 64000. If the TCP/IP port number is not specified,
FLEXnet uses a port number in the range 27000 to 27009.
DAEMON Line
The DAEMON line identifies the name and location ofthe vendor daemon and
the name and location of the FLEXnet options file, using the format
DAEMON vendor vendor_daemon_path options=options_file_path
where
• vendor is the name ofthe vendor daemon, MLM for The MathWorks.
• vendor_daemon_path is the fully specified path to the daemon executable,
for example,
C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2006b\flexlm\mlm.exe
• options=options_f ile_path is the full path ofthe options file, such as,
options=C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2006b\flexlm\MLM.opt
