License Server Manager Information and Settings

Important:You must first fill out all fields on the License Manage Configuration > Settings page before you can access any other License Server Manager pages.

The top menu item is the License Manage Configuration group, which contains the Settings and About views. The About view (not pictured) displays build, system, and browser information. In the Settings view, you set the server type (local license server or CLS instance), specify the port number/CLS instance ID and host name (network name or IP address) for the license server, as well as the number of records to show on a page. These configuration settings appear in a separate list because they can be modified even if the license server is inaccessible, unlike the license server policy settings and configuration properties.

The default port for the local license server is 7070.
