Field Server Licensing on Field Servers not Connected to Internet Workflow
Use this workflow to assign and activate licenses on field servers that are not connected to Internet and cannot access License Activation Server (FNO).
Do not use this workflow if you are on a semi online system where the field servers are not connected to Internet, but the Device Administrator is connected to the Internet.

You need one computer running Device Administrator that is connected to Internet and can access License Activation Server (FNO).
