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 main web interface to manage findface-ntls:

  • 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 6 hours to restore it before the licensable components will be automatically stopped.

The findface-ntls configuration is done through a configuration file /etc/findface-ntls.cfg.
