Downloading and Updating IPv6 Support Files

You must already have the Autodesk Network License Manager installed in order to apply the IPv6 Support update. If you do not already have the Autodesk Network License Manager installed on your server, refer to the Network Licensing Guide in the Help system for installation instructions.

To download the IPv6 Support software

Before you can perform any system maintenance on your license server, including updates, you must stop the license server. When you have completed the update, you must restart the license server.

• Download the NLMIPv6Support_Win32.exe file to your desktop.

You should be logged in with Administrator rights when working with the LMTOOLS utility.

1. Right-click the LMTOOLS icon on the desktop and click Run As Administrator.
2. In the LMTOOLS program, click the Start/Stop/Reread tab.
3. On the Start/Stop/Reread tab, click Stop Server, wait 15 seconds, and then proceed.
4. Close lmtools.exe.
