You can borrow licenses even when the machine that is running the license server has no Internet connection. You can instead use another machine without license server that has Internet connection to log into my.chaosgroup.com with your Chaos account and specify the products for which you need to borrow licenses. An offline file will be available for download from your account that you need to upload to your license server.
