48.1 | 1 | There are three different ways the client can retrieve licenses, provided licenses are available for the client. |
| 2 | |||
| 3 | {{info title="Activation Server for License Retrieval"}} | ||
| 4 | Activation server: rangee.applicense.net | ||
| |
8.1 | 5 | Port: 443 |

48.1 | 6 | Website: https://rangee.applicense.net |

| |
48.1 | 9 | Each device automatically receives a 30-day demo license during the initial setup with Rangee version 10 or higher, allowing unrestricted use. For devices that come pre-installed with Rangee Linux OS, the licenses required for operation are included. If that is not the case, please contact your sales partner. |
| |
8.1 | 10 | |
| |
48.1 | 11 | If a client does not have a valid license or the license necessary for the Kommbox is due to expire within the next 10 days, the user will receive a warning notice. |
| |
28.1 | 12 | |
| |
48.1 | 13 | This notice can be confirmed and removed by clicking OK. The already existing functions of the Thin Client will remain available even after the license expires. |
| |
28.1 | 14 | |
| |
48.1 | 15 | Configuration in the Kommbox is only possible if a valid license is available. Upon every restart, the client checks for available licenses and retrieves a new license automatically according to option 1 and 2. |
| |
28.1 | 16 | |
| |
48.1 | 17 | The Thin Client can receive new licenses through online activation or offline activation (see below). |
| |
8.1 | 18 | |
| |
48.1 | 19 | For online activation: |
| |
8.1 | 20 | |
| |
48.1 | 21 | Check if the Thin Client has internet access: |
| 22 | |||
| 23 | You can open a browser via the Kommbox and retrieve a public website, e.g., google.de. | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | If this is not successful, you need to check under Connections -> Network -> Network adapter configuration whether a valid DNS or gateway is entered. | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | If this is the case, the website can also be accessed via the web browser, and the license can be retrieved: | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | = 1. Direct Online Activation = | ||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | If the client has direct access to our activation server, a manual retrieval can be performed via the license manager. | ||

| |
48.1 | 34 | * Open the license manager (accessible for already licensed devices via {{status title="Information"/}} → {{status title="Licenses"/}}) |
| 35 | * Open the menu {{status title="License Request"/}} | ||
| 36 | * (optional) Uncheck "Use TCMS-Relay" | ||
| 37 | * (optional) Enter an activation key | ||
| 38 | * Press the {{status title="Onlineactivation"/}} button{{lightbox image="lizenz_abruf_03.PNG" group="1"/}} | ||

| 42 | {{info title="Info"}} | ||
| |
48.1 | 43 | This feature is supported by all current TCMS versions starting from this software version: |
| |
8.1 | 44 | |
| |
48.1 | 45 | * Firmware 10.00 amd64 build 050 |
| 46 | * TCMS 1.6 amd64 10.0 build 007 | ||
| 47 | |||
| |
8.1 | 48 | {{/info}} |
| 49 | |||
| |
48.1 | 50 | In this mode, the Thin Client does not need direct access to our license server; it is sufficient if TCMS has access to it. The license requests are sent to the TCMS, which forwards them to the activation server. |
| |
8.1 | 51 | |
| |
48.1 | 52 | Procedure for a manual license retrieval via TCMS-Relay: |
| |
8.1 | 53 | |
| |
48.1 | 54 | * Open the license manager (accessible for already licensed devices via {{status title="Information"/}} → {{status title="Licenses"/}}) |
| 55 | * Under {{status title="TCMS"/}} (accessible for already licensed devices via {{status title="REMOTE-ADMINISTRATION"/}} → {{status title="TCMS-Settings"/}}), ensure that the Thin Client has a TCMS server configured{{lightbox image="image2021-4-23_10-6-14.png" group="1"/}} | ||
| 56 | * Open the menu {{status title="License Request"/}} | ||
| 57 | * Ensure the "Use TCMS-Relay" checkbox is checked | ||
