FLEXnet uses a group of processes, called daemons, to control access to software applications. These daemons run on a server in your network. In this section, this server is referred to as your license server.
The main daemon is the license manager daemon (matlabroot\flexlm\lmgrd.exe). This daemon is responsible for managing the initial communication between the licensed application and the vendor daemons associated with each licensed application.
Every vendor that uses FLEXnet to manage the licensing of its products must supply a vendor daemon. The vendor daemon is responsible for keeping track of how many license keys are available for a particular application and for granting or denying access to the application, depending on the current usage of these license keys. The MathWorks vendor daemon is matlabroot\flexlm\mlm.exe.
