Authorization
Here you can carry out the authorization of ATHENA. This is necessary, for example, after the initial installation or when you need an extension of the contractual term.
For authorization you have to request and import a license file.
Dialog box Authorization
db_ath_code
On the left side in the upper section of the dialog box, you can see the serial number of your hardware protection plug and on the right side a link to the log file. The expiry date (for temporary licenses) is shown in the dialog box at the bottom left.
The serial number is also a link to the Admin Control Center (ACC). The ACC carries out the management of your licenses and helps with the diagnosis of problems with the hardware protection plug. Other important functions of the ACC are:
Reading out information from your hardware protection plug into a C2V file.
Importing V2C files to release functions.
There is separate documentation for the ACC. With queries you can also get in touch with your technical contact.
