I have been running FPGA Advantage 6 on both windows and linux however ive just got a laptop and there seems to be noway of running it unless its connected to a network i.e. the wired gigabit or the Intel wireless. It isnt a prolem under windows as i got away with using virtual NIC adapters via VMWARE GSX server and then mapping the licence to that VIRTUAL NIC MAC address. I gather the only solution is to have a floating licence so that it doesnt care about any MACS, correct me if iam wrong as I no expert on licensing.
 

I think that it is impossible, because you need the ethernet for making a link between your computer and the vm.
 

Re: FPGA Advantage with Node locked Licence without network

use your hard disk

host=disk_serial_num (not sure about the correct syntax, double check, your home work)=????

Check Flexlm user manual (perform a search).

Or, give your laptop a flex-id (may requires installation of flex-id software, usually comes along with eda software, else, download from site). To do this, name your computer as "flexid=?-????? ".....
