No License found with LAN. License found with WLAN.

Hello,

i use Cadence Allegro 17.4 and everything is up to date. License manager version is 11.14.1.0.

When i connect with VPN and WLAN frome home, the license will be found.

When i connect with VPN and LAN from home, no license will be found.

If i connect with LAN at company, license will be found. WLAN too.

I work with a local dongle on my notebook.

Follow information is shown at home, when it doesnt work.

"Retrieval ao 'Allegro_performance' license failed: 'ERROR (LMF-13015): Licnese call failed for feature PCB_design_studi. The license server search path is defined as <none>. The FLEXnet error message is as follow, FLEXnet ERROR (-15,234, 0): Cannnot connect to license server system.

Run 'lic_error LMF-13015' for more information'. Report the licenses in use log via the menu item File->Viewlog: License_use.log.

Notebook System is Windows 10.

VPN is CheckPoint.

Any idea, where the problem could be?

Thanks.

    the message:

    makes me think the license settings are screwed up...

    What is your CDS_LIC_FILE system environmental variable setting?

    OK, so you are only looking at your local USB dongle for licenses, nothing from the LAN or WLAN

    Is your local license server running?

    Please check by running lmutil lmstat, an example from my laptop is shown below:

    D:\SPB_Data\Teraspeed\FQSFP_TestCard\Layout>d:\Cadence\LicenseManager\lmutil lmstat -c %CDS_LIC_FILE%
