Obtaining a hostid for Licensing

问题描述

How do I obtain a hostid for my license file?

解决方法

For many license types in the COMSOL product family, your COMSOL sales representative will ask you for some information in order to create installation codes. COMSOL uses the FlexNet Publisher licensing system to create installation codes using the HostID and server name and possibly more information about your system. Theserver nameis the network name of the computer, which can be just a name, (e.g., bart), a fully qualified ip-name (bart.simpson.com) or an ip-number (130.243.43.3). TheHostIDis the physical hardware number of the Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC). The HostID is sometimes calledEthernet addressorMAC-address (Media Access Control address).

Computers often have different cards with different hostids listed on them. If you are unsure about which hostid to use, please include the full printout of the command you ran when communicating with your COMSOL representative.
