For administrators: Step 2 - Update advanced settings in the Tekla on-demand licensing service

To open LMTOOLS, go to the installation folder and double-click lmtools.exe.
On the Service/License File tab, ensure that Tekla On-Demand Licensing Service is selected.
Restrict the license server to accept shutdown commands only from the computer where the license server is running.

If you do not enable this restriction, anyone can shut down the license server remotely.
1. Click Edit Advanced settings.
2. Select Restrict lmdown to work only from node where lmgrd is running.
3. Click Save Advanced settings.

Do not start the server yet. The Tekla on-demand license administration tool will start the server in a later step.
