Test FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform Server Authentication Settings

To test the FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform server authentication settings, you need to browse to the FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform ComplianceAPIService documentation page to determine whether you are prompted to enter network credentials. This will test whether the authentication settings of the FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform server are set properly.

To test the FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform server authentication settings:

1. On the App Portal server machine, enter the following URL in a web browser:

http://<FNMPServer>/ManageSoftServices/ComplianceAPIService/ComplianceAPIService.asmx

such as:

http://win2008r2fnmp/ManageSoftServices/ComplianceAPIService/ComplianceAPIService.asmx

Tip:When identifying the FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform server in this URL, you can enter either the application server name or the server IP address.

The ComplianceAPIService page on the FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform server should open without prompting you to enter network credentials:

If you are prompted to enter network credentials, then Windows Authentication is not set up correctly on the FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform server and you will need to modify its authentication settings.

Note:If Windows Authentication is not enabled on the FlexNet Manager Platform server, App Portal will be unable to communicate with FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform.

2. To modify the FlexNet Manager Suite/ FlexNet Manager Platform server authentication settings, see Verify FlexNet Manager Suite On Premises Application Server Authentication Settings in IIS.
