Configure a Network license

With the license server configured and the Network License Manager installed, the next step after installing your products, is to configure the software license using the License Configuration tool.

Note: If you don't complete the license configuration following installation, you will see the Autodesk Let’s Get Started when you launch the product. Close the Let’s Get Started dialog and follow the steps below to set up your user environment.

The License Configuration tool can be accessed from the Windows Start menu, located in the Autodesk Moldflow Adviser folder.
