When you subscribe to the IAR platform, you get access to all products offered by IAR and all supported architectures. The IAR cloud licensing management system authenticates the use of your IAR products against the cloud. You can authenticate the use with a named users license or a capacity license.

When you install your IAR product on a client computer the IAR LMSC Daemon is installed as well. The daemon communicates with the IAR cloud and verifies your licenses.
