The information on this page refers to LM-X version 4.1, which now allows saving HostID information to a text file. If you are running LM-X version 4.0, please refer to version 4.0 documentation for information relevant to that version.

The HostIDs tab in the LM-X License Server Client lists all the HostIDs for the license server. The information for each HostID includes the Type (for example, ETHERNET, HOSTNAME, IPADDRESS, etc.), Description, and Value. The Description and Value are often identical, but some HostID types will have different entries. For example, an Ethernet HostID will have the Ethernet manufacturer under Description, and the actual Ethernet ID under Value.

You can use the Save button to save HostID information about the current machine the license server is running on to a text file. Saving this information to file gives you an easy way to supply your HostID information to your software vendor when requested.
