- If you use the Windows Firewall, exceptions for certain ports may be required to enable the utilisation of the Hardlock Server or the Softlock Server License. Click here to read what steps are required for this.
- If network licences are used, the following operating systems can be used for the licence server: Windows Server 2008 und Windows Server 2012.
