Altera Software Installation and Licensing Manual
You can use the FLEXlm licensing scheme to configure up to three redundant license
servers. The first server specified is the master. Use the master server’s NIC ID or host
ID when obtaining a license.
To find your Linux NIC ID, type the following command at a command prompt:
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 r
In the output of the command, the NIC ID is the ID to the right of HWaddr, without
the colons.
To find your NIC ID if the Quartus II software is installed on your computer, on the
Tools menu, click License Setup. Your NIC ID appears under Local System info in
the Network Interface Card (NIC) ID field.
Hard-Disk Serial Number
The hard-disk serial number is an eight-character hexadecimal ID that identifies the
PC with the Altera license. If the ID is not eight characters, include a leading zero.
To find the hard-disk serial number on a Windows PC, type the following command
at a command prompt:
vol c: r
In the output of the command, the hard-disk serial number is the volume serial
number.
To find the hard-disk serial number if the Quartus II software is installed on your
computer, on the Tools menu, click License Setup. The hard-disk serial number
appears under Local Systems info in the C: drive serial number field. Verifying the
hard-disk serial number with the Quartus II software ensures that you use the correct
hard-disk serial number if your PC has multiple hard drives.
License Server Host ID Number
The license server host ID is an 8- or 12-digit hexadecimal number, which identifies
the Windows or Linux workstation that serves Quartus II software licenses.
The license server host ID for Windows or Linux is equivalent to the NIC ID. Refer to
“NIC ID” on page
You can use your license server host ID to obtain a license file if you have a floating
license.
Altera ID
An Altera ID number is assigned by Altera when you purchase software. This
six-digit number allows Altera to identify customers when they purchase an Altera
product or request technical support. The Altera ID number can be downloaded from
the mySupport section of the Altera website at www.altera.com/mysupport, and is
printed on the software’s shipping label and packing slip.
If you did not originally purchase the license, you can register as a secondary user of
the software on the mySupport section of the Altera website. If you do not know the
Altera ID used for the license, use six zeros (000000) to request a license file.
