General > Licensing > Cloud license setup

The function of the "Cloud license" is very similar to the "Floating license", with the difference that the license server is located in the cloud. Therefore, there is no need to run your own license server.
A stable internet connection is required to use "Cloud licensing".

For using CFturbo with a "Cloud license" 2 steps must be performed:

1)Request a cloud license from CFturbo sales team (sales@cfturbo.com). No technical data must be provided.

2)Copy the received "Cloud license" file in the CFturbo installation directory of all computers, that shall be used for operating the CFturbo software.

Note: If CFturbo is additionally configured for using a floating license, CFturbo modules get checked out from this floating license first if available.

Install license file

Copy the received CFturbo license file to the CFturbo installation directory (C:\Program Files\CFturbo *) that was selected during setup.

The CFturbo license file will have a .lic file extension, which must not be modified!
There should be only one license file (*.lic) placed within the CFturbo installation directory.

Once this step is complete, you may restart CFturbo and check the license information (SETTINGS | Licensing | SHOW current license information).

Note: The cloud license server is ls96.rlmcloud.com, which is contacted via port 443. To communicate with the license server across a firewall, this port must be allowed.
