If the CHARON license is a network license (red USB dongle), it is possible either to connect it to the host USB port (to use it locally and provide it to other hosts on the local network in at the same time) or to install it on some a local network "license server" for remote access from this particular host.

In case of remote usageIf a remote license server is to be used:

  • Copy the files aksusbd-2.5-1.i386.rpm and charon-license-4.8-<build>.68704.<OS identifier>.x86_64.rpm files rpm (see above) to any directory on the server in any directory, for example "/temp".
  • Login as "root" on the server.
  • Switch to that directory.

  • Install the copied file using "yum".
    Example:

    # cd /temp
    # yum install aksusbd* charon-license-*

...

Info

Network HASP (red dongles) licenses have no restrictions with respect to remote access.

Software license

If the CHARON license is a software license (SL), it is installed on the host using the following procedure:

  1. Run the hasp_srm_view utility in the following way to get the host fingerprint file ("my_host.c2v" in this example):

    # hasp_srm_view -fgp my_host.c2v
  2. Send the resulting file to STROMASYS. In return STROMASYS will provide you with a "*.v2c" file, for example "your_license.v2c".
  3. Copy the received "your_license.v2c" file to any folder on the CHARON host to any folder then . Then invoke the system default web browser and enter the URL http://localhost:1947 to display the "Sentinel Admin Control Center" (ACC) web interface. This interface allows you to view and manage CHARON licenses.
  4. In the ACC perform the following steps: First select Update/Attach from the menu on the left. Then use Browse to select the file "your_license.v2c" file and and Apply File to update install the license.
  5. Ensure that the software license appears is now visible in the "Sentinel Keys" menu of the ACC.


Info

Alternatively, it is also possible to use the "hasp_update" utility for applying the ".v2c" file.

Info

Software licenses are always network licenses, too. Hence, they have no restrictions with respect to being displayed or accessed via a remote connection.

Note

Reminder: If the CHARON host is accessed remotely over a remote connection, please note that regular HASP licenses cannot be displayed and used in this case. As workaround it is possible to install CHARON as daemon. This procedure will be described later.
