Licensing

In this step, specify whether the Chaos License Server runs locally or on another machine.

If you select Remote licensing, you have to enter the IP address of your Chaos License Server in the Primary License Server field. Leave port 30304 unchanged. An Alternate License Server can be used for redundancy in case the primary one does not respond. The License Server will not install when the Remote option is selected.

When Local licensing is selected, the Chaos License Server is installed with Chaos Anima.
