Provide license privileges for remote desktop users

Configure the network settings to share license privileges using remote desktop.
Before you begin:
  • Configure the network to allow communication between the devices that need to share license privileges. The computers receiving the privileges must establish a connection on TCP and UDP Port 22350 with the computer providing the privileges.
  • Enable the license to share for network use. Use the License Portal to configure licenses and optionally enable them for network use.
  • Install a
    CmStick
     that contains the same license with
    Use
     permission on the computers that receive permissions. Make sure that the computers that receive permissions from the remote workstation. Insert the
    CmStick
     into a USB port locally on the computers.
To provide license privileges for remote desktop users
  1. On the remote desktop client computer, open the
    CodeMeter Control Center
    application. To open the application, navigate to the C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeMeter\Runtime\bin folder and run the
    CodeMeter.exe
    file.
    IMPORTANT:
    Install a
    CmStick
     that contains a license with all the privileges to use remotely. Insert the
    CmStick
     into a USB port on your computer.
  2. Select
    WebAdmin
     to open the
    CodeMeter WebAdmin
    window in your default web browser.

    , select
    Deny
    and select
    Apply
    .

  11. On the remote computer, open the
    CodeMeter Control Center
     application.
    IMPORTANT:
    Insert a
    CmStick
     containing a corresponding license with
    Use
     permission into any USB port on the remote desktop server. A remote computer cannot provide
    Use
     permission.

    TIP:
    When the
    Server Search List
     is blank in the
    CodeMeter WebAdmin
     tool, CodeMeter searches all servers that it finds on your subnet. When a user has a license that is also on a license server, the user's permissions might be upgraded to match the license on the server. To prevent accidental granting of privileges and to prevent CodeMeter from searching unnecessarily, add
    127.0.0.1
     (the localhost IP address) to the
    Server Search List
    .
    Navigate to the
    Process
     tab on the
    CodeMeter Control Center
     to stop and then restart
    CodeMeter
    .
