A. Getting Hardware Information for License
This appendix shows how to obtain information about the computer on which you want to install the Intel® FPGA software license. Most licenses require a network interface card (NIC) ID, which is the physical address of your Ethernet card.
License Type | OS | Hardware Information | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Fixed license | Windows* or Linux | NIC ID or software guard ID | Legacy Quartus II software version 7.2 and earlier support software guards. |
Floating license | Windows* or Linux license servers | NIC ID | Use the ID from a physical NIC card, not a virtual ID. |
UNIX license servers | Host ID | Equivalent to the NIC ID. |
