How to connect to the License server

Within the same network

When the licensing server is in the same subnet as the client, and all communication via TCP and UDP port 1947 is possible, no further communication settings are required.

All other cases require additional settings:

• In your browser open the Sentinel Admin Control Center via http://localhost:1947
• Go to Configuration – Access to remote license managers
• Configure these settings:

  
  

  
• Press “Submit” after making changes, and wait a few minutes. The changes are now applied

Outside the network

Working from home

You have a stable internet connection at your remote location

This can be done in two ways:

• VPN connection: This is the most secure, because a username and password can be set to have set up the VPN-connection
• Fixed external IP address: which can then be set up port forwarding on the router for traffic over port 1947 to the license server. This is the least secure, because this cannot be password-protected via the Sentinel License Manager

Working outdoors

No (stable) internet connection at the remote location then you can 'borrow' a license by detaching a license from the License server
