findface-ntls

The findface-ntls service is to be installed on a designated host to verify the FindFace license. For verification purposes, findface-ntls uses one of the following sources:

  • Ntech Lab global license center if you opt for the online licensing, direct or via a proxy server.

  • USB dongle if you opt for the on-premise licensing.

Use the FindFace Multi web interface (Preferences -> License) to manage findface-ntls in the following way:

  • view the list of purchased features,

  • view license limitations,

  • upload a license file,

  • view the list of currently active components.

The following components are licensable:

  • findface-tarantool-server,

  • findface-extraction-api,

  • findface-video-manager,

  • findface-video-worker.

Important

After connection between findface-ntls and a licensable component, or between findface-ntls and the global license server is broken, you will have 4 hours to restore it before the licensable components will be automatically stopped. It is possible to prolongate the off-grid period for up to 2 days. Inform your manager if you need that.

The findface-ntls configuration is done through a configuration file /etc/findface-ntls.cfg. You can find its default content here.
