Installing a Client Identity on an End User's Machine

Each client identity is represented by a unique identity string. You obtain the string for each client identity using Sentinel LDK Cloud Portal. The licensed user that receives the identity string can install it on their machines using one of the following methods:

>Install the identity string using an email from Sentinel LDK Cloud Portal.

>Enter the identity string manually in the License Manager configuration file on the machine.

Each of these methods is described in this section.

Installing an Identity String Using an Email from Sentinel LDK Cloud Portal

Using Sentinel LDK Cloud Portal, the vendor administrator or the customer administrator can send an email to a licensed user that contains a link for installing the user's identity string on their machine. The user simply clicks the link to install the identity string.

This option can only be used if Sentinel LDK Run-time Environment 8.51 or later is installed on the user's machine.

Entering an Identity String Manually

For a machine that does not have the Run-time Environment installed, the licensed user must enter the identity string manually in the configuration file for the Integrated License Manager or the External License Manager. (The vendor administrator or customer administrator uses Sentinel LDK Cloud Portal to generate an identity string for the licensed user.)

To determine where to find the configuration file for the License Manager, see Working Directly With License Manager Configuration Files.

For a Windows desktop application, this file is typically:

%LocalAppData%\SafeNet Sentinel\Sentinel LDK\hasp_<vendorId>.ini

where <vendorId> is the Vendor ID associated with your Batch Code (or hasp_demo for DEMOMA).

Open the configuration file in a text editor. Enter the identity string using the serveraddr parameter. For example:

serveraddr = 4VE5N3V:oBWAAQCBEBJnJ3btDmfbhLtCw/o7kjE@10.162.104.213

The configuration file can contain multiple serveraddr parameters.

If proxy communication is required, manually set proxy attributes in the configuration file described above.

Add the following parameters in the configuration file:

proxy = 1
proxy_host = <host>
proxy_port = 8080
proxy_username = <username>
proxy_password = <password>

Provide the required values where indicated.
