The License Management Server
NOTE: We recommend that you do not restrict the use of the License Management Server as this can make it impossible for any client to connect to your IBM i.
The License Management Server is used by Client Access original clients to process license management requests. Optimized clients use the Central Server to process license management requests.
The License Management Server does not implement any functions that pose security problems for most installations.
