CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP licensing models are divided into 3 groups:
 

Regular Sentinel HASP keys

This is the most common way of CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP licensing. 

The CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP license is embedded in a Sentinel HASP dongle. This license is available only on the host where the dongle is physically installed.

The CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP installation procedure takes care of the Sentinel HASP run-time (driver) installation. Once the CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP product has been installed, it is possible to plug in the regular license key and proceed with using CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP without additional configuration steps.

Info

The number of CHARON VMs allowed to run on a particular host may be restricted by the license content (see above).


...

  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).

Removing CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP software licenses

The following procedure must be applied to remove the software license (SL):


  1. Open the CHARON Virtual Machines Manager, switch to the "Host Information & Utilities" tab and press the "Sentinel Admin Control Center" button:

    or - alternatively - start any web browser on this system and go to the http://localhost:1947 page.

  2. In the "Sentinel HASP Admin Control Center" (ACC), select the "Sentinel Keys" option in the left pane and locate the target "Sentinel SL AdminMode" license.
  3. Press the "Certificates" button at the right side of the SL description:

  4. Note the name of the correspondent certificate in the "Certificates" section. The name is in the form of <KeyID>_base.v2c
  5. Remove the corresponding certificate file in the "C:\Program Files\Common Files\SafeNet Sentinel\Sentinel LDK\installed\68704" folder.
  6. Reboot the CHARON host.
  7. Start the "Sentinel HASP Admin Control Center" (ACC) again to ensure the SL has been removed.
