  1. Installation of the Sentinel run-time environment on the CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP host (regular and network keys) or on the host that will distribute CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP licenses over a local network segment (network key only). The Sentinel software is installed automatically by CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP for Windows.
  2. Physical connection of the HASP license dongle to the CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP host or to the host distributing the CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP license over the local network segment.
  3. Collecting the system fingerprint (*.c2v file), sending it to STROMASYS and applying the update (*.v2c file) in case of software license (and in case of updating HASP dongle license). See the details below.

When a manual installation of the Sentinel run-time is required (in the case of the network license server that does not have CHARON-AXP installed):

  1. Login as Administrator
  2. Open the CHARON-VAX/PDP kit folder
  3. Switch to the "hasp_install" subfolder
  4. Unzip the archive "haspdinst.zip" located in this folder
  5. Open "cmd.exe" and switch to the folder where the files were unzipped
  6. Execute the following commands:


    ...> haspdinst.exe -fr -kp -nomsg

    ...> haspdinst.exe -install -cm


  7. Extract the contents of this archive "hasplib.zip" to the same directory.
  8. Copy the file "haspvlib_68704.dll" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Aladdin Shared\HASP" (in case of x64 host) or "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Aladdin Shared\HASP" (in case of x86 host)


Info

Note that the following operations have to be performed on installation phase for network licenses:

  • On the server side (where the network license will reside): open port 1947 for both TCP and UDP
  • On the client side, if broadcast search for remote licenses is to be used, UDP traffic from port 1947 of the license server to ports 30000-65535 of the client must be permitted.
  • Both on server and client sides: setup default gateway

Please consult with your Windows User's Guide on details.

If stricter firewall rules are required, it is possible to open the ports 30000-65535 and 1947 only for the "Sentinel HASP License Manager" (hasplms.exe) service (it will be installed by CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP).

Disable remote keys access 

A helpful feature of the Sentinel Admin Control Center is the ability to disable access to remote keys. If the network key is installed locally, access to the key from remote hosts can be disabled. The following examples demonstrate how this can be done.
