Currently there is three different types of licenses that are supported: a node-locked license which is tied to a particular computer, a dongle/hardware key which plugs into your USB port, or a network license server. Network servers allow a number of licenses to be put on a central computer. These licenses can then be checked out, used, and then checked back in by computers on the network.
