License Generator

The License Generator tool allows users to create licenses for the Netwrix Password Policy Enforcer, Netwrix Password Policy Enforcer Web, and Netwrix Password Reset products. Licenses can be configured and customized based on individual security polices. Each license generated will be saved locally as a .txt file. Use the license generated from this tool when configuring the Password Policy Enforcer console.

The License Generator tool has the following features:

    • Subscription license — This license type allows users on the server to have all permissions as granted by their subscription model

  • Product Version — Lists all product versions the License Generator can create valid license for. This field is enabled only when selecting the Perpetual license type.
