Configuring Evaluation Licenses Chapter 1: Synopsys FPGA Licensing The following procedure elaborates on the flow in the previous figure and shows you how to set up an evaluation or trial license. For details of the configurations available for the Synopsys FPGA tool you are evaluating, check License Configuration Tables, on page 1-3. 1. Request a trial license. – Install the software as described in Chapter 2, Installation. – Start the software. The License Request dialog box opens. Select To request a Trial License click here and fill in the details. Synopsys faxes or emails a trial license to you. – Unless you already have a dongle, you will be asked for a host ID (Solaris) or MAC address. The server host ID is normally displayed at the top of the License Request dialog box when you request a trial license. – On the RHEL 4 platform, if the License Request dialog box does not display, contact Synopsys and request a trial license (see Contacting Synopsys for FPGA Products, on page 3-33). Fax or email your name, address, and the host ID for the license server along with the request. If you do not already have the host ID, run the following command to get this information: install_dir/linux/lmutil lmhostid. – Once you obtain the license information, cut and paste the information into the license file, as described in the next two steps. 2. If you get a serverless node-locked license, do the following: – Open the license.txt file in the directory where you installed the Synopsys FPGA tool. – Cut and paste, or manually copy the FEATURE line entry that was sent to you into the license.txt file. 3. If you get a server-based node-locked or floating trial license, do the following: – Open the license.txt file on the server and update the FEATURE line as described in the previous step. – Set up the license server to administer the license. See Configuring Windows License Servers, on page 3-6, Configuring Linux License Servers, on page 3-13, or Configuring Solaris License Servers, on page 3-17, depending on the platform for your license server.
