When using the paid ^Quartus® Prime design software or paid intellectual property (IP) in the development of Altera FPGAs, you must purchase a license (right to use) for that product and then obtain a license file.

Since FIXED type licenses issue license files to the NIC ID of a computer, if you cannot take the computer you normally use with ^Quartus® Prime to your home or lab, you will not be able to use ^Quartus® Prime.

It is possible to change the NIC ID binding for the license (rehost) and reissue the license file, but there is a limit to the number of times the NIC ID can be changed, so we do not recommend changing it frequently.

In such cases, we recommend using the Companion License.

[Notes]

・ FLOAT license users,How to obtain a checkout licensePlease see.

If you can connect to a PC with a FIXED license from another PC using remote desktop, you can use ^Quartus Prime remotely.

No companion license is required.

This article explains how to obtain a companion license for users who use a paid ^Quartus® Prime or IP license with a fixed type.

This procedure must be carried out by the license administrator.

What is a companion license?

A companion license is a FIXED license that allows you to use a FIXED license on a computer other than the one it is already assigned to.

Licenses can be issued to up to three computers, such as an office computer, a lab computer, and a home computer, provided that the same user is using the software.

However, users are limited to using only one computer at a time.

Points to Note When Applying for a Companion License

Please note the following when applying for a companion license:

・ If the "Primary Computer Type" of the computer linked to the FIXED license is a Guard ID (ID number starting with T),

I cannot register my computer's NIC ID as the ID to apply for a companion license.

Companion license is available for Questa– FIXED license for ^Intel® FPGA Edition cannot be issued. (Not supported)

All licenses assigned to the computer that owns the SW-ONE-QUARTUS license (Questa– Intel ^® FPGA Edition License)

It is issued as a companion license, and each license cannot have a different companion NIC ID.
