Platform/Operating System refers to the combination of computer hardware and software on your system. VERICUT 7.x runs on Windows. VERICUT-supported operating systems include Windows 7 & XP (32 and 64 bit) on Intel Pentium or 100% Pentium-compatible platforms.

A license file is a file stored on your computer that contains “codes” or “keys” that allow access to VERICUT and VERICUT options. It is generated by CGTech and is required to run VERICUT products. All users must submit a License Request form. Upon receipt, CGTech will send license codes via email, which you subsequently save into a license file on your system (directions are included with the license file email).

CGTech company ID is a unique number assigned to all accounts. Six digit customer ID’s begin with ‘10xxxx’, and five digit reseller I D’s begin with ‘30xxx’,’20xxx’ for Demo Sites. This ID is in VERICUT license files, packing slips, and mailings sent to your company from CGTech.

A Host Name is the name of the computer that will run the VERICUT license server process, as it is identified on your network. Should you have any problems retrieving the proper Host Name information, please contact technical support.

A MAC Address is the unique network ID number or system ID of the target computer that will run the VERICUT license server process.

how do I find my MAC Address?

Windows must have the following components installed:

– Network Card – in the license server computer- TCP/IP – bound to network card

A valid Windows MAC Address is 12 characters and contains only 0-9 numbers and A-F alpha characters
A utility program called hostinfo.bat is provided with the VERICUT installer. This program displays the MAC Address.

If you do not have access to the VERICUT installer, you can do the following:

Windows 7/Vista/XP

From a Command Prompt window type:ipconfig/all

Report 12 character Physical Address value found under the Ethernet Card section.e.g.: “00-AA-00-A8-D8-98”

Should you have any problems retrieving the proper MAC Address information, please contact Technical Support

If your client computer is a different type than the license server computer, select the platform types in the ‘Additional Computers’ section of the License Request form and those platforms will be added to your license.

Windows 7/Vista/XP

From a Command Prompt window type:ipconfig/all

Report 12 character Physical Address value found under the Ethernet Card section.e.g.: “00-AA-00-A8-D8-98”

Should you have any problems retrieving the proper MAC Address information, please contact Technical Support

Redundant server uses three (3) computers that communicate with each other to act as one logical VERICUT license server. A redundant license server requires that you request special licensing. Three separate computers and corresponding host IDs and host names must be provided. The three computers do not have to be the same platform type.

Complete the License Request on our web site. At the bottom of the form, be sure to complete the License Transfer section. Include the host ID of the new license server as well as the host ID of the old license server. Customers with current maintenance may apply for a license transfer.
