Question:
What ports are needed for the License server? I have 27000 TCP open. I have the LeadIT client trying to connect at 27000 to the server and it is not working.

Answer:
The license server uses 2 ports, one external, 27000 by default, and one internal, an arbitrary number for each start for communication between the 2 processes "lmgrd" and the vendor daemon "BIOSOLVE" which both run on the same license server machine.
  • To specify the external port which is used to communicate with clients (the tool, e.g. LeadIT, that should be executed), you simply append the port number at the end of the very first line ("SERVER ...") of the license file. e.g.
    SERVER licenseserver.company.com BIOSOLVEIT=0BS53D08DD3C6D214A2F01DBA6A1B0FC434 34567
    to use the external port 34567 instead of the standard port 27000.
  • You can also specify the internal port in the "VENDOR" line of the license file by appending " PORT=<port-number>", where <port-number> should be replaced by your desired port number. E.g.
    VENDOR BIOSOLVE PORT=45678
    to always use the internal port 45678 instead of an arbitrarily chosen port for each lmgrd session.
