Flexible Licensing Models for PC and Linux Operating Systems

Subscriptions are available in flexible licensing models to support stand-alone PCs or networks including mixtures of PC and Linux clients. The information in Table 1 will help you select the product that best fits into your design environment.

Table 1. Altera Subscription Products 
System Configuration Product Additional Floating Nodes Renewing Subscription
Stand-Alone, Single-User License for PCs (1) FIXEDPC   Renewal
Multiple-User Network Licensing for PC and Linux Nodes (2) FLOATALL ADD-FLOATALL Renewal
Legacy Multiple-User Network Licenses (3)   ADD-FLOATALL Renewal

Notes:

  1. With version 8.0 and later, FIXEDPC no longer includes/supports USB dongles. Licenses are tied to a NIC (Network Interface Card) or similar.
  2. FLOATALL product license servers can be Linux or Windows based. Any client on the network can access the software. The maximum number of users that can access the software at any one time is equal to the number of seats purchased.
  3. Support for additional PC or Linux clients can be added to an existing FLOATPC, FLOATLNX, or FLOATNET license server by adding one or more ADD-FLOATALL licenses.
