  Yes, that is possible, but your office IT would be required to support the network configuration changes. They would need to allow communications from AWS to access your internal license server.n

  Ok thanks! And what kind of infrastructure do we need to establish to accomplish that kind of communication, a VPN between the clients and the server? What is required by the license manager?n

  Please work with your IT support and AWS to discuss this. You will need the AWS client to be able to communicate with the license server via TCP on the 3 licensing ports for ansyslmd, lmgrd and ansysli_server.n
