Setting up the network license manager

Install Polysun on the server. You can download Polysun here: https://www.velasolaris.com/downloads/
Unpack the archive ‘PolysunNetworkLicenseManager.zip’ (the path of the zip file is the directory of the Polysun installation) and install the appropriate licence manager depending on the operating system.
- Windows server: Please use setup.exe for installation
- Linux/Mac server: use lserv64 (64 bit) or lserv (32 bit) (must be started from a terminal environment). Note: On Linux/Mac, the license manager is not automatically set up as an autostart program and therefore has to be set up manually (e.g. via crontab).
Start Polysun, click on ‘Activate automatically with EID/PKID’ and enter your license key (PKID, alternatively EID). Afterwards, enter ‘localhost’ when Polysun asks for a contact server address.
Close Polysun on the server. Start Polysun on a client. Click on ‘Connect to a network license manager’ and enter the network IP address of the server.
- If it is not possible to connect a client to the server, you may need to enable the UDP ports 5093 and 5099 in the firewall.
If the online activation process is not possible or desired, you will find a README file in the ZIP file (PolysunNetworkLicenseManager.zip) with another variant for setting up (offline activation).
