Can CodeMeter license server be hosted in the cloud, like Amazon Web Service (AWS) in headless mode, or other machine OS such as Linux?

Yes, you will need to:
1. Install CodeMeter Runtime supported on your designated server
2. Make ports 22350-22352 accessible via your server firewall (or AWS config webpage)
3. Modify /etc/wibu/CodeMeter/Server.ini file to have

  • RemoteRead=2
  • IsCmWANServer=1
  • IsNetworkServer=1

4. Install Codemeter Runtime on client Windows OS and through the CodeMeter WebAdmin interface (http://localhost:22352), add the public IP address of the cloud/Linux server

Can I change the port number that CodeMeter uses?

Yes, but you must match the port number on both the license server and client computer. On the license server, launch CodeMeter WebAdmin interface (http://localhost:22352) and go to “Configuration | Advanced | Extra” tab. At the Network Advanced section, change the Network Port: 22350 to a port number you desire. Be sure that chosen port number is not blocked at your local/network firewall.

How do I add the license server on my client computer?

Launch CodeMeter WebAdmin interface (http://localhost:22352) and go to “Configuration | Basic Configuration | Server Search List” tab. On the Basic Configuration Server Search List, add your license server name or IP address. Then at the bottom of the window, click on “Current Server” to switch to the newly added server name or IP address.

How do I monitor CodeMeter license activity?

Launch CodeMeter WebAdmin interface (http://localhost:22352) and go to “License Monitoring | Sessions” tab. Any CodeMeter license activities will be shown here.

How do I access CodeMeter WebAdmin?
