Transporting a license to another host PC

To easily transport a license, Keysight recommends that you configure your
system so that the host system running Keysight License Manager (KLM)
connects both to the Internet and to the LAN connecting the source and target
systems.
KLM automatically removes a transported license from the source system. The
license is then re-issued by the Keysight Software Manager Transport License
Web Service, and then installed onto a target system

3 Follow the instructions in the Entitlement Certificate to redeem the license.
You must enter the Entitlement Certificate number and the host ID of the
PC (see "Your PC Host ID" on page 22 of this guide for host ID information).
4 Once you have entered the information, a license file is emailed (as an
attachment) to the PC. The license file has a .lic file extension; for example:
10000996212_829728.lic.
5 From this email, save the attached license file to a temporary location on
the C: drive of the computer where you have installed the PD1000A Control
Software.
6 Start the Keysight License Manager on your computer. Click Windows Start
> All Programs > Keysight License Manager > Keysight License Manager.
7 Use File > Install to browse and open the license file that was attached to
the email and then minimize Keysight License Manager. Note: on newer
versions of Keysight License Manager, select the wrench icon ( ), then
Install License File....

location of the license file. Select the license file, and click the Open button.
– The system running KLM can be either the source system, the target
system, or a separate Windows-based computer.
– When the source system and the target system both have LAN
connectivity, you can use a simple drag-and-drop action to transport a
license using KLM.
To transport a license, KLM must connect to the services available
on the Keysight Software Manager Transport License Web site.
This connection takes up to 90 seconds to complete a license
transport operation.
