    NoteIf you have a trial version of Smoke installed, you must re-install Smoke to install and configure the network license. Do not use the Activate button from the Product License Activation window to activate a network license of Smoke.

    With a network license, you must install a license server to manage the license.

    • If you have only one Autodesk product running on a single workstation, the license server can be installed and set up for you automatically on the same workstation as Smoke. See Installing Smoke with a Local Network License.
    • If you manage licenses from multiple Autodesk products or for many workstations across your network, consider installing and configuring the license server on a dedicated workstation before you install Smoke. See Understanding License Server Models.
