Access to the permits recorded in CYPE program user licenses via a network is done so using TCP/IP. CYPE programs communicate with the server using an IP address and port number.

The server will have to be active and at a computer that can be accessed by clients.

CYPE programs consult the server (IP + port) to see which permits are held by users to be able to use a program or module and, if the server provides access confirmation, the program will open without any problem.

If no confirmation is provided or the reply is negative, an error will be displayed.

If it is a network license:

The Network License Server will see to these requests using the following ports (which can be configured): by default 30333 TCP, 30334 UDP and 30335 TCP. The waiting time and number of attempts can also be configured. All the computers of the CYPE program users which can access the computer at which the Network License Server is installed and have all the configured ports open, will have access to the permits recorded in the Network License and, therefore, will be able to work with the acquired programs without any problem (up to the maximum number of users of the Network License).

A virtual private network is a stable work environment if the connection line is reliable.

If it is an electronic license:

The IPs of the CYPE Servers which receive client requests are:

• servidortemporales.cype.es (actualmente IP 81.47.162.157)
• servidortemporales2.cype.es (actualmente IP 51.75.207.194)
• servidortemporales3.cype.es (actualmente IP 15.236.16.215)

The port used is 30333 (TCP)

The CYPE program installed in the user’s computer will consult the CYPE server as to which permits have been acquired. When these have been confirmed by the server, the user will be able to work. In this case, the only parameters that can be configured are the waiting time and the number of attempts.

If the connection line cuts-off and a reply is not received or the license does not contain the corresponding permit, it will not be possible to use the application.

If a proxy is used, the packages returned by the server will have to be guided towards the computer which is waiting for a reply. If the reply is not received, it will not be possible to use the application.

A connection is established between a CYPE program and CYPE Servers using an email and password.

Several licenses can have the same email and password and so users can choose which one is to be used in the connection.

The last email and password that were used are saved, i.e., if nobody has used the license since it was last used, when the computer is switched on, it will automatically connect to this license, without the need of having to reintroduce the email or password.

An Administrator exists when Electronic Licenses are used, who can change the email and passwords of the licenses. The origin IPs can also be restricted, so that, even though users know the password, the licenses cannot be used at computers other than at those selected by the Administrator.

Use of the program with Citrix, Terminal server or similar

Its operation is permitted with network or electronic licenses due to its operation philosophy. In other words, if clients can access the server and obtain the permits, they will be able to access without any problem. The user data is saved in the user profile, which is unique in virtual computers and different for each user. The same profile cannot be used in the server for several users simultaneously.
