On-Premise Licensing

For on-premise licensing, Silk Performer provides two types of licenses:

• standalone licenses
• floating licenses

The concept of floating licenses allows license sharing among users. It requires a Silk Meter installation. Silk Meter is the license server for all your Silk products.

Note the following:

• Silk Performer requires Silk Meter version 2008 or newer as well as a Silk Performer license policy file.
• If you have multiple license servers, you need multiple license policy files, each one tied to a particular license server.
• If you have received a Silk Performer license policy file, install the file on your license server.
• If you have not received a license policy file, generate one with the online license generator.
