If they do not let you on the network, how would you connect to the IBM i?
If they let you do that, then they should let you get to the license
server.

Thanks,

Well, I can check, but I seriously doubt they'll let me connect my personal
laptop to the network, even if just to validate the license. In that case,
it would appear that I'm SOL for RDi on my personal machine. Unless I've
misunderstood something here.

But if I'm correct, it seems to me that a lot of people would be affected.
I'm finding most companies are locking down their networks nowadays,
*especially* if they're in any kind of financial sector.

Thoughts?

When the license check is done in the product, it checks with
Installation
Manager (which is where the licenses are registered). If either user
license or floating license is valid, then the license check succeeds.
In
terms of user licenses, it could be a valid trial license or a permanent
license. In the case of a floating license, Installation Manager will
connect to the Rational License server that is defined in Installation
Manager for your company to see if there are available floating licenses.
In the case when you are offline and can't validate with your Rational
License server, as long as you have validated recently, it will still let
you work.

Thanks,
Eric
