This tab provides an overview of the available licenses. It contains information about the options in the database and displays all available options. Right-click on an entry to expand the list with more information.

You can choose between operating with the Traditional or Smart Licensing license model by enabling or disabling the Smart-Licensing option. For more information see Activate Smart Licensing.

Dongles

All identified dongles are displayed on this tab. In our case, a Smart Licensing dongle was found. If a dongle is clicked on, all information about this dongle is read out.

With Smart Licensing, one Smart Licensing dongle is available for all licenses and options. With Traditional Licensing, you can import multiple dongles.

Request New Options

This tab is only for requesting Traditional Licensing options (see License Overview).

New options for Traditional Licensing can be requested via this dialog. When you click on the dongle to which the new options are to be assigned, a URL appears in the Copy this token to partner portal to purchase new options field. Right-clicking on this URL opens a menu where the URL can be copied, saved or opened in the default browser.

After you pass the URL to a browser, follow the instructions on the website.
