Using the License Management Console

The License Management Console lets you manage and monitor your Citrix licenses by providing a user interface to the license server. You can download licenses, display real-time inventories of licenses, run historical usage reports, and monitor alerts with the console. Use the console to configure and maintain the license server. Because the console displays in a Web browser, you can manage licenses from any location on your network. You can also connect to the License Management Console remotely over a secure http connection.

This diagram shows three workstations with access to the Licenses Management Console, which resides with the license server on a single computer.
