Creo Elements/Direct - remote License Server

[lfortner]

With version 20.8 I cannot access anymore the remote license Server status using http://<Remote License Server>:17171. Logged to the server http://localhost:17171 works as expected.

Il there any workaround or some administration command to use?

Hi @lfortner 

Thank you for your question! 

I’d like to recommend to bring more details and context to your initial inquiry. For example:

• When you try to access the remote license server via the browser, does it time out, or do you get a specific error message?
• Has anything changed in your environment recently — like a software update, firewall rule, or network policy — that might affect how remote access works?
• Is your goal mainly to monitor license usage remotely, or are you trying to perform some kind of admin task through the web interface?

Please add screenshot(s) to better understand what you are trying to do in your process.

I installed CED License Server on a computer A. I run Modeling on computer B.

Logged in computer A I can access the License Server summary page using http://localhost:17171.

But logged in computer B I cannot access the License Server summary page using http://A:17171,  I receive the following message :

     Creo Elements/Direct License Server Web Administration
     Web Administration are accessible only on the Server Host machine.
     Please refer Changelog section of User Guide for more details

This was possible and useful with License Server 20.7 and below.

From now, I cannot monitor licenses out of the computer where License Server 20.8 is installed.
