Vendor daemon (for advanced FlexNet users)
If you already have a FlexNet License Server Manager installed on a Windows server, and if you don’t want to install a second license manager, you have the option to add the Sodius FlexNet vendor daemon on top of your existing license server. Please refer to the “Managing Licenses from Multiple Vendors” chapter of the Flexera License Administration Guide for more information.This option is available for administrators already familiar with FlexNet based products.
