Simplified BricsCAD Network License Management

Bricsys has released a new network license manager to manage your BricsCAD network licenses. The manager has been significantly overhauled to make the managing and maintaining your network license a whole lot simpler.

What are the benefits?

The new Bricsys Network License Server brings the following benefits:

  • It detects licenses that are covered by an active maintenance contract and provides the option to upgrade them on the Bricsys Network License Manager dialog box.
  • It has an improved User Interface that provides a good overview of all licenses deployed on a server.
  • It guides users to useful resources, such as Bricsys Help Center, Bricsys Support, RLM diagnostic tools, etc.

What actions should I take?

If you're a BricsCAD network license user, we recommend that you arrange to upgrade your existing network license manager to the latest version as soon as possible.

You can download the latest Bricsys license manager along with installation details for your platform using the buttons below.

Upgrading your license?

Details on upgrading your existing license with the new network license manager can be found here in the Bricsys Help system.

Upgrading your network license

Please Note that BricsCAD licenses are backwards compatible. It is not necessary to upgrade end users to the latest BricsCAD release as part of a network license update. They can continue to run with whatever version of BricsCAD that they have currently installed.

BricsCAD license management utility

In addition to updating the network license manager, Bricsys have also made a utility available to allow IT administrators to automate routine license operations on client machines.

The LicTool is a Command Line application that can be used by System or Network Administrators to automate routine operations with BricsCAD licenses, such as deactivation or activation. For network license users, it can be used to automate processes on user machines, such as saving the address of a network license server and updating the local license file.

The LicTool is included with the BricsCAD V25 installation but can also be run as a stand-alone application, making it particularly useful if you need to work with older BricsCAD installations.

Details and download options for this tool can be found here in the Bricsys help.
