Our current firewall setup will not allow software to connect to the Internet. This creates a problem when trying to upgrade the license for my newly installed version of FlexSim 2016.
I have contacted our local IT department and have been told that if I can give them the direct web address to the license upgrade server, they can have it added to the list of allowed connections and hopefully that will prevent future issues with upgrading our licenses. I looked through the licensing tab in FlexSim but couldn't identify the correct address that the software would be navigating to for the license upgrade.
Please send the address that the software would be trying to navigate to in order to upgrade the license. I'm sure other companies with strict firewalls experience trouble with acquiring licenses when they first have FlexSim installed, so perhaps this will resolve issues for a number of FlexSim users.
