3.This switches the dialog to LicenseServer activation mode (screenshot below). In the Altova LicenseServer combo box, select a LicenseServer from the dropdown list. Note that the auto-discovery of License Servers works by means of a broadcast sent out on the LAN. As these broadcasts are limited to a subnet, License Server must be on the same subnet as the client machine for auto-discovery to work. If auto-discovery does not work, then type in the name of the server.

ALSRegisterDesktopProd

When the connection to the selected LicenseServer is made, the product is immediately registered with the selected LicenseServer, and, in the Client Management tab of LicenseServer, the product is displayed in that client machine's product list.

 

Unregistering a desktop product

To unregister a desktop product, go to the Client Management tab of LicenseServer and, in the right-hand Product licensing pane, click the product's Unregister Product button.
