Good morning Ansys Community. I have acquired Ansys Entitlements for Texas Tech's FSAE Team, Red Raider Racing. We are having an issue finding the correct license service file for Ansys License Management Center, and we are having difficulty setting up Ansys License Settings for the non-server computer to communicate and ping the server. We are unsure what to put for the port and server. Also, we are unsure which file in the file path to upload for the License Management Center to "Start" and run for entitlement validation.

Hello Colton,

The License Server name would be in the license file you received or downloaded from:
https://licensing.ansys.com/
The port number on the client side would be 1055, if it is a default license server setup.
One other recommendation is to add firewall exceptions on the license server:
