Downloading licenses

If the FNE license server is not connected to the internet you must manually download the license container from the Advantest License Portal and upload it to the FNE license server.

About this task

If the FNE license server does not have access to the Internet, you must manually download the license container file from the Advantest License Portal and upload it to the FNE license server.

You need to use the download/email function in the License Portal to get the license container. The license container is delivered in a zip file which you must unzip to get the actual license container "bin" file.
