How to set up a SEH Dongle Server
Dongles are used to prevent the illegal copying of software. To run the secured software the dongle must be plugged into the system, in most cases this is performed by plugging the dongle into the local USB port of the workstation. This requires unplugging, carrying and sharing the dongle if the software is used on different systems or by different users. If multiple dongles are used it can be hard to detect who is using which dongle and if there are any free dongles available. To ease the management of these dongles the SEH Dongle Server myUTN 80 or an equivalent product can be used.
The SEH UTN-Dongle Server virtually distributes the connected dongles, allows to manage up to 8 USB dongles inside the WinCC OA system. The distribution can be performed manually or automatically using the provided software tool myUTN Manager. The UTN Manager allows configuring the distribution, limitation and security of the dongles and USB ports. The UTN Manager also allows an overview over the currently used and available dongles.
For further information according setup of the SEH Dongle Server please refer to the SEH Dongle White paper located in the download section in the portal.
