Set the number of licenses for multi-module network application:
/MN=x
Dongle type:
Guardant Sign Net / Time Net / Net III / Net II
Parameter value:
0<=x<=127
Description:
This option allows tracking the network license limit of each module of a multi-module application.
Suppose a protected program complex consists of 4 modules:
- MyProg1.exe – Accounting,
- MyProg2.exe – Payroll,
- MyProg3.exe – Human Resources,
- MyProg4.exe – Office.
Using this option you can control the use of any module. In order to do this you need to consequently protect each module with option /MN=хх.
If a number exceeding the number of modules is used during the attempt to log in into Guardant Net server, the system will return error code 10 – License counter of Guardant Net exhausted.
Important information
In order to use the license management system you need to create a special field called License Table in the dongle’s memory and record the number of modules and license limit for each module.
Applications protected using this mode log in to Guardant Net server on startup and use a designated limit from the license table.
Now the end-user will be able to launch modules of the protected application only on the number of workstations defined by the developer.
Example:
NwKey32.exe /GN3S /MN=00 MyProg1.exe
NwKey32.exe /GN3S /MN=01 MyProg2.exe
NwKey32.exe /GN3S /MN=02 MyProg3.exe
NwKey32.exe /GN3S /MN=03 MyProg4.exe
