CGS Labs Licensing - Network license management

License management/administration for network licenses is performed through the RLM application, which can be reached in a web browser. URL to access it from anywhere in the network: http://testserver2019:5056/home.asp, where testserver2019 is the server name in this example. On the server, you can access it also through localhost: http://localhost:5056/home.asp

Here is a short overlook of the few most important features.

Status

Here you can overview the status of licenses on the network server.

  • Under license files you should see 2 lic files (CGS.lic and serial.lic)
  • Check port number (by default it should be 5055, as is defined in lic files, and added to firewall rules)
  • Check ISV port number (by default it should be 51517, and it is added to firewall rules)

You have full diagnostics in this file, which can be very helpful for troubleshooting. Especially if the Firewall blocks the server-client communication, the port for communication has to be added to firewall rules.
