In case your design is using an IP that
is licensed and that IP license is hosted on a license server, perform the following
instructions to make that license accessible to ISE tools on the Virtual Machine.
Because the default ISE Virtual Machine network configuration limits it to have access only to the Windows 10 host, its network configuration must be updated. Enable external networking as detailed in Enabling Full Networking in Chapter 6.
After the ISE VM has full networking enabled, you need to point the ISE tools to your existing IP license server.
- Open a terminal window on the ISE VM guest, .
- Type the
following:
export LM_LICENSE_FILE=<port>@<license server>For example export
LM_LICENSE_FILE=2100@pikachu. - Verify that the IP licenses are accessible to ISE tools by launching Project Navigator from the same terminal by typing ise and go to .
