How Sentinel LM Works
The Sentinel LM package contains the elements needed to support the programming and deployment of software licensing.

Here is a high-level example of a Sentinel LM implementation with the components of Sentinel LM referenced to provide an overall picture of how Sentinel LM works.
There are three basic phases of the implementation project for Sentinel LM:
License |
Model Description |
Design - Define license models to be supported - Select a Sentinel LM implementation option of either the Sentinel LM Shell or the Sentinel LM API set |
- Sentinel LM Shell - Sentinel LM API Set |
Implementation - Integrate Sentinel LM into the application - Add Sentinel LM components to the software build - Generate License Templates to support License Models |
- Sentinel LM Shell - Sentinel LM API Set - Sentinel LM License Generator - Sentinel LM Utilities |
Deployment - Upgrade Trial or Evaluation licenses to Full Licenses - Add licenses for additional users - Provide access to new versions |
