Installation and Registration Guide

Network license activation

Network licensing requires a TCP/IP connection. Install License Server on one of computers in the local network. Install nanoCAD on every computer which will use it, then connect nanoCAD with License Server through the Registration Wizard by the name of Server PC or its IP address

Network license provides installing nanoCAD on any number of PCs, but no more than the number of paid PCs will be able to start nanoCAD at the same time.

Connect to License Server
