Manage licenses

The Automation Anywhere Control Room provides an automated mechanism for tracking the use of licensed software across multiple Control Room instances and share these entitlements in real-time.

Note: Ensure that you add the static IP address (192.124.249.160) of the Cloud license server to the safe recipients or trusted list to allow your On-Premises Control Room to connect to the Cloud license server.

The Control Room is capable of connecting to the Cloud license server using your network proxy. For more information, see Configure forward proxy settings.)
