The following image provides an overview of the VPC license server topology in a cloud environment:
Points to note:
- The license server software can be combined with the Charon-SSP emulator software on one instance.
- The license server can run on a separate instance in the same virtual private cloud network environment.
- Charon host and license server do not need a public IP address. They communicate across the cloud-internal LAN environment.
The decision whether the license server should run on a separate instance depends on the customer's requirements.
