This tutorial section provides step-by-step instructions on how to
protect and license your application via USB License. USB License provides
dongle-based protection in which you can license the application by making the USB
License Key (dongle) to be provided to the user. The followings are the common
scenarios for USB License.

In the above scenarios, you can use USB LicenseKey Manager to make
unlimited USB License Keys. However, there are several scenarios in which you
may want to authorize a third party (e.g. a distributor or manufacturer) to
make the USB License Key on your behalf, for a limited number only. To support
such a need, USB LicenseKey Manager allows you to create a distributor tool
called USB LicenseKey Maker. The tool can be deployed in one of the following
two modes.
