Downloading and installing COMSOL:

Download the last version of COMSOL from the LPD drive:

LPD Team > Softwares > Comsol > [Comsol version]

Connect to the license server via SSH using you GATE credentials using the command:

ssh -nNT -L 1719:licserver3.ifi.unicamp.br:1719 -L 1718:licserver3.ifi.unicamp.br:1718 <user name>@gate.ifi.unicamp.br

It will ask for your password.

Start COMSOL installation

When asked to insert license select License Format <port number>@<hostname>.

As port number use 1719.

As hostname use your localhost (the IPv4 Loopback Address). Localhost is usually "127.0.0.1". If it doesn't work you can open a terminal and type netsh interface ipv4 show address on Windows or ifconfig on Linux.
