The HostIDs tab in the Template dialog lets you specify the HostID(s) that will be used to lock the license, such as Ethernet, Hostname, IP Address, etc. When HostID locking is used, the proper HostID information must be supplied in order to activate the license.
Note thatthe following HostID-specific considerations:
- LAC does not support HostID values that contain blank spaces.
...
- The values you enter as HostID(s) are case-insensitive (for example, "User" and "USER" are interpreted as the same entries).
- The maximum length of a HostID value is 255 characters.
- Supported characters include:
- upper- and lowercase letters A - Z
- numbers 0 - 9
- _ (underscore)
- . (period)
- * (asterisk)
- : (colon)
- \ (backslash)
- - (hyphen)
- @ (at) for Username HostID type only
The toggles at the top of the HostIDs tab let you choose whether to use HostID locking.

For each HostID type selected, set the Minimum Required (0 to 16; defaults to 1) and the Maximum Allowed (1 to 16; defaults to 1). For example, if you require the IP Address, and additionally require one more HostID that can be the Username, Hostname, or IP Address, your settings would be:
HostID Type | Min Required | Max Allowed |
|---|---|---|
Ethernet | 0 | 1 |
Username | 0 | 1 |
