Problem

The IP address of the Hosted License Server (SELECTserver online) changed on 1st May 2021

Usually, the IP address is not necessary for access to the Hosted server.

In special cases, it is required due to internal company security settings.

What is the new IP address?

Solution

Update 8th of June 2021:

We NO Longer support the notion of static IP addresses for SELECTserver.

It is not possible to provide an IP Range.

The solution for the user is to stop IP Filtering.
