-====Network Access from Host Computer==== 
-This method provides access to the license key over the network. Assuming both the guest and host operating systems are on the same network (which they will be when using a network adapter in bridge mode), a license key connected to the host computer can be accessed. This assumes network access is allowed in the license keys's settings (more on this below). Thus, the physical USB key can be connected to the host computer and will then be automatically found by Blocks. 
  
-=== Host operating system === 
-Verify or adjust the following license key settings in your host computer 
- 
-  * Open the CodeMeter Control Center. 
-  * Click the WebAdmin button, and wait for the web UI to appear. 
-  * Select Configuration > Server. 
-  * Under Network Server, select Enable. 
-  * Click Apply. 
- 
-=== Guest operating system === 
-The CodeMeter software has been pre-installed, and configured to look for the license on the local network. To verify accesibility: 
-  * Start the virtual machine. 
-  * Once up, use the command //cmu --list-server --list-content//. 
-  * This should show your server's IP address and license information. Look for the text "102977" 
   
-==== Connecting the USB License Key to Another Computer ==== 
-In the example above, the license key is physically connected to the host computer, and then accessed over the (host-computer internal) "network". If you can't connect the license key to the host computer for some reason, you can instead connect it to another computer on the same subnet, and it will be found automatically by Blocks. Alternatively, use a cloud-based license (requires internet access).
