The information on this page refers to License Statistics v7.1 or newer, which moved EPLAN bundling from the Remote Monitoring tab to a new Metadata tab in the Add/Edit License Server page. If you are using a version previous to v7.1, see documentation for previous versions.

When creating or editing an EPLAN LM license server, you have the option of importing an EPLAN bundle (a ".4elm" file).

  2. Add or edit the EPLAN LM license server, as applicable. If you are unfamiliar with managing license servers, see Adding and editing license servers for more details.
