SUMMARY
The System ID is a unique identifier for a machine, taken from its primary MAC address, used to generate Nodelocked and Floating licenses. You do not need a System ID for Login licenses (Individual or Team), as those are tied to a Foundry account rather than a machine.
Which machine's System ID do I need?
- Nodelocked: the machine you will run the software on.
- Floating/Server: the machine that will act as the license server.
How do I find it? Download and open the FLU from foundry.com/licensing/tools, click System ID in the left panel, and click Copy to Clipboard to copy it for use on the Foundry website or in an email to Sales.
MORE INFORMATION
The System ID is taken from the primary MAC address of the machine. We recommend using the Foundry Licensing Utility (FLU) to find your System ID as it will return the same System ID that the license code is checking against.
