About Creo Parametric Licenses
In Creo Parametric, there are two types of licenses:
Locked Licenses—A locked license allows Creo Parametric to run only on the machine for which the codes were generated. With this type of license, a license server is not required.
Floating Licenses—A floating license allows Creo Parametric to run on any machine on your network, provided a machine can communicate with the license server. The license server keeps track of how many licenses are checked out and will grant or deny licenses to clients based on license availability
