Online Activation

The ETAS License Manager software (LiMa) generates a Capability Request for entitled features, then sends the request to FlexNet Operations via the Internet. FlexNet Operations sends a Capability Response to the device, which processes the response and places the license into trusted storage.

No manual interaction with ETAS License & Download Portal is required.

Offline Activation

The ETAS License Manager software (LiMa) generates a Capability Request file, which is manually transferred to a connected system from which it can be uploaded to FlexNet Operations. The Capability Response is downloaded from FlexNet Operations and transferred to the ETAS license management software (LiMa) for processing.
