1. In the main page within the Altera website, click MYALTERA and log into your account.
2. Click the link to the Self-Service Licensing Center.
3. Perform the steps outlined in the Requesting a License from the Self-Service Licensing Center section of
the Altera Software Installation and Licensing manual to obtain and activate the license.
You must obtain a separate license for the SoC Embedded Design Suite (EDS).
4. If you have a fixed license, append the
<path_to_license_file>/<license_filename> file to the
LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable in the following manner:
a. Create a backup copy of the provided license file.
b. Save the new license file on your local hard drive.
c. Append the
<path_to_license_file>/<license_filename> file to the LM_LICENSE_FILE environment
variable.
5. If you have a floating licence, append the <path_to_license_file>/<license_filename> file to the
LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable in the following manner:
a. Obtain the port number and host name from the network or system administrator. Alternatively,
the information is in the license file line
SERVER <hostname> <8 to 12 character host or NIC
ID> <port>
.
The license location for the user is <port>@<hostname>. If a port is not listed in the license file,
specify @<hostname>.
b. Modify the license file to update the port number and host name.
c. Append the
<path_to_license_file>/<license_filename> file to the LM_LICENSE_FILE environment
variable.
