Functionality

X-LICENSE is used to license all X-SOFTWARE products, i.e. to control the legitimate usage of the software.

We use the product LICENSE TRAY of SMART ALEC.

The right to use the software is attested by a license document and is technically implemented by a license key. One - or for higher availability more - license servers control - allow or deny and log - the usage of the software throughout the local network. The right to use may be bound to an individual computer (node-locked) or to the whole network (floating).

In the most simple case of node-locked licensing, the main program of the licensed product automatically starts a local license server.

Without a license key the licensed product may be used with total functionality during a limited period of time only. There are temporary license keys for a longer evaluation period available.
