run more systems, you need to purchase more stand-alone licensed products, or consider converting to network licenses. Network licensed products rely on the Network License Manager to keep track of software licenses. The software can be installed and run on multiple systems, up to the maximum number of licenses you've purchased. The Network License Manager "checks out" licenses until they are all in use. No further systems can run the program until a license is "checked in." If you need to run more systems, you can purchase additional licenses for the Network License Manager to maintain. What is the benefit of using a network licensed version of the software? Network licensed products are recommended for large drafting/design facilities, classrooms, and lab environments. The main advantage is that you can install products on more systems than the number of licenses you have purchased (for example, purchasing 25 licenses but installing on 40 workstations). At any one time, products will run on the maximum number of systems for which you have licenses. This means you get a true floating license. If software needs to be run on more systems, additional licenses can be purchased. Registration and activation occurs only once and the licenses are maintained on your Network License Server. What is Internet Explorer used for? After installing your product, you can operate in trial mode for a given number of days. Whenever you launch the program, you are prompted to activate the software. When you choose to activate the software, Internet Explorer makes this process much faster. Once you entered your registration data and submit it to Autodesk, an activation code is returned and you are not prompted again during startup.
