Identifying the Host Name and Host ID
The host name and host ID are system-level identifiers on supported platforms that
are used in the license file to identify the node on which you plan to install the Intel
License Manager for FLEXlm* and license file. To enable you to obtain a counted
license, these unique values must be available when you register your product. For
node-locked licenses, you will also need the host name and host id of the node from
which your applications will run, if different from the node for the Intel License
Manager for FLEXlm*. Follow these directions to obtain the host name and host id for
each supported platform:

Microsoft Windows*
1. From the Start menu, click Run...
2. Type cmd in the Open: field, then click OK.
3. Type ipconfig /all at the command prompt, and press Enter.
In the resulting output, host name is the value that corresponds to Host Name, and
host id is the value that corresponds to Physical Address.

For example, if the output of ipconfig /all included the following:
Host Name . . . . . . . : mycomputer
. . .
Physical Address . . . . : 00-06-29-CF-74-AA
then host name is mycomputer and the host ID is 00-06-29-CF-74-AA.

Linux*
1. Run the hostname command to display the host name.
2. Run the command /sbin/ifconfig eth0 to display the hardware address.
For example, if the /sbin/ifconfig eth0 command returns
HWaddr 00:D0:B7:A8:80:AA, then the host ID is 00:D0:B7:A8:80:AA.
It is strongly recommended that users run the lmhostid utility to obtain the hostid
value required to generate the counted licenses. The lmhostid utility can be found in
the install location to which Intel License Manager for FLEXlm* is installed.

Mac OS* X on Intel® Architecture
1. Run the hostname command to display the host name.
2. Run the command /sbin/ifconfig en0 ether to display the hardware address.
The following is an example of an address that could be returned by this command:
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether 00:13:20:60:23:4f
It is strongly recommended that users run the lmhostid utility to obtain the hostid
value required to generate the counted licenses. The lmhostid utility is installed to
the same location as the Intel License Manager for FLEXlm*.
