- The ionCube Encoder - Version 6
- -------------------------------
- LICENSING YOUR ENCODER
- ----------------------
- Your encoder comes with an allocation of 1 or more unassigned licenses.
- Each license can be assigned to any machine having an Ethernet network adaptor.
- The licensing process has two simple steps, described below.
- * Generating a license key request and sending it to us.
- * Downloading and installing a license file from us.
- GENERATING A LICENSE KEY REQUEST
- --------------------------------
- To assign a license you must first generate a license request. The encoder
- can do this for you:
- * Run the encoder with the --license-request option on a machine where you
- wish to use the encoder. The Encoder will attempt to create a license
- request file for each network interface installed into your computer.
- It will also display the name of each interface found and the name of the
- file it created containing the license request. If the Encoder was unable
- to create license request files then the request data will be displayed
- instead. Your network interfaces do not need to be connected to any network
- but must be configured with an IP address.
- If there is no output then there may be no Ethernet interface for that
- machine. Please contact us at support@ioncube.com in that case.
- On Windows there is an item in the ionCube program group for creating
- licenses. Click the Start menu, and in the ionCube entry, select
- the "License Request Generator" item.
- SUBMITTING YOUR LICENSE REQUEST
- -------------------------------
- Email the license request to us at licenses@ioncube.com for the machine(s)
- that you wish to use. If a machine has more than one interface, send a
- request for the interface least likely to change on the machine. Licensing
- to a removable network is also recommended if at all possible.
- Your license request may be processed automatically, and in this case you will
- be sent an email response within a few seconds. If the request could not
- be processed automatically, it will be handled as soon as possible by
- the licensing department, and you will receive a response once this has been
- done.
- INSTALLING YOUR LICENSE
- -----------------------
- When we receive your license request we will email you back with instructions
- for installing a license file. Once this has been completed, your encoder
- will then be licensed and fully operational. If you have any problems then
- please contact us at support@ioncube.com
- WHAT IF MY NETWORK CARD BREAKS OR IF I CHANGE MY MACHINE?
- ---------------------------------------------------------
- We are flexible about relicensing customers when there is a genuine need to
- do so, however network cards are actually very reliable. They provide a
- cheap and convenient 'dongle' to license against, and failure is unlikely.
- We do recommend licensing to a removable network card if you can so that
- it may be moved into a new machine in the future. This will also assist in
- handling any relicense requests in the future.
