Mixed FlexNet Embedded and FlexNet Publisher licensing
FlexNet Embedded (FNE) and FlexNet Publisher (FNP) license management can be handled from an FNE license server installation, using the FNP to FNE proxy solution, simplifying license management.
Benefits of integrated mixed licensing includes:
- Simpler licensing management.
- License re-hosting for SmarTest 5, 6, 7 and 8.
- Automatic annual renewal of perpetual licenses.
The license server software is installed using the tool: install-fne-date-version.sh
