Installation and Client Setup
This guide is for end users who will install Astah under an Astah Faculty Site License.
With this license, eligible faculty, staff, and students may use Astah on university-owned computers in the licensed department and on their personally owned computers.
Summary of Steps
- The license administrator generates the license files.
(If the files have not been generated yet, the administrator must complete license registration first.)
- The administrator distributes the appropriate license file to end users.
- End users download Astah, set the license file, and activate it on their computers.
Administrator note:
– You can distribute license files by email or by making them available on an internal website or shared folder for eligible users.
– If you want to install Astah quietly on many campus computers, see the silent-install guide.
