5. For serverless node-locked installations, set up the license file.<br />
– Open the license.txt file in the directory where you installed the<br />
<strong>Synopsys</strong> <strong>FPGA</strong> tool.<br />
– Cut and paste, or manually copy the FEATURE line entry that was<br />
sent to you into the license.txt file.<br />
You can now run the software.<br />
6. For all server-based installations, set up the license server to administer<br />
the license.<br />
– Open the license.txt file on the server, and update the FEATURE line<br />
as described in the previous step.<br />
– Set up the license server to administer the license. See Configuring<br />
Windows License Servers, on page 3-6, Configuring Linux License<br />
Servers, on page 3-13, and Configuring Solaris License Servers, on<br />
page 3-17 for platform-specific details.<br />
7. For all server-based installations, set up the license clients to check out<br />
a license from the license server.<br />
See Setting up a Windows Client, on page 3-29 and Setting up a Linux or<br />
Solaris Client, on page 3-30 for platform-specific details.<br />
