The License can be shared between multiple users and devices, or it can be used locally.

When doing a shared setup, the license holder needs to install the license locally on at least one machine in the network. Installing the license happens automatically when you perform a default Chaos product installation. If you only need to install the License Server application separately, see the Installation page. This machine can use the license, but it also serves as a connection point for others to connect to the license. If you are the license holder, i.e., the administrator, see the Administrator Workflow page.

Here is how to connect to an already set-up Premium shared license:

  • The administrator needs to give you their machine's IP address. This serves as your connection point to the Chaos License. 
  • When installing your Chaos product, at the Licensing step, select Remote. In the Primary License Server field, type the server IP address that your license administrator gave you. At the end, add the :30304 port.
  • Continue to finish the installation. You are connected to the active licenses after that.
