Discover TAS: TheGreenBow Activation Server
Activating a pool of VPN client licenses must sometimes come with certain constraints, such as not having an internet access for security reasons. We offer an activation server that runs on Linux to make it easier for system administrators to deploy and manage licenses. The server allows you to manage TheGreenBow VPN Client licenses directly within the organization’s or company’s local network.
How TAS works
A software license is used to activate TheGreenBow VPN Clients. To validate the license, TheGreenBow VPN Clients will connect to our online activation server over the internet.
TheGreenBow VPN Clients can also be deployed on in-house networks that do not connect to the internet. In this case, our TheGreenBow Activation Server (TAS) allows you to manage VPN client licenses directly within the organization’s or company’s local network.
TAS is a software that can be installed on various Linux platforms. Based on Apache, mySQL or MariaDB and PHP, it comes complete with documentation explaining how to configure a Linux server to manage TheGreenBow VPN Client licenses and activations.
