License management

The licensing model in TNI

A license is a separate entity within TNI.

To keep track of licensed software, create a license, link it to a software item, and assign it to individual installations. You can also configure licensing rules for each license to determine the compliance status of its installations.

A license key is another entity within a license. Creating license keys simplifies management, provides a clear visual representation of all relationships, and allows newly licensed installations to be detected automatically.

TNI does not provide predefined licensing models because software vendors use a wide variety of licensing schemes. Instead, TNI provides a flexible set of tools that can be adapted to the licensing rules of virtually any software product.

The License management screen

To access the License management screen, click the Licenses tab.

This screen provides the tools for creating and managing software license assets, setting up licensing rules, and keeping track of the licensing status of your software.
