Hardware IDs are often referenced as installation codes, because the codes are only available after the installation of the application on a machine. The hardware Id's are referenced with installation code numbers to prevent, that the user knows the criteria which is used. The installation code numbers are itemized in brackets after the name of the hardware ID.
For protection of privacy, the hardware ID is always an 8 digit code. This is very important because some countries do not allow to transfer personal data like hostname.
The following hardware IDs are supported. The number in brackets represent the installation codes, which are used within Licence Protector.
•Volume ID (1)
•MAC Address of the network adapter (2)
•Hostname (3)
•Netbios Name (4) 1)
•Volume ID and UNC Pathname (5) - recommended for network installations
•MAC Address and UNC Pathname (6)
•IP-Address (7) 1)
•Volume ID + MAC Address + Hostname + UNC Pathname (8) 1)
•Volume ID + MAC Address + Hostname (9) 1)
•Hostname and UNC Pathname (10) - recommended for a server applications
•USB flash drive (11) 1)
•Windows Domain(12) 1)
•Windows ID (13) - recommended for single user installations

This feature is only available in the Professional Edition.
If a hardware ID can not be retrieved (e.g. there is no network adapter) then the code is empty.
•Windows ID (recommended)
For an application which runs on the client, the license test is done on the client and the license file is on the server, you should only use an installation code combined with the UNC pathname like code 5, code 6, code 8 or code 10
The product activation is done on the client machine.
If the application is server based or a web application and the license test is done on the server, you can use the installation codes for single user, especially Windows ID. The product activation is done on the server.
