Retrieving and Setting Up a Gurobi License
Once your license is visible in the Gurobi User Portal, you can review the license details.
Your next step is to install this Gurobi license on your machine. You do this by obtaining a license key file.
We strongly recommend that you place your client gurobi.lic
file in a default location for your platform (either your home directory or /opt/gurobi). Setting up
a non-default location is error-prone and a frequent source of
trouble.
Please consult the License Type field on the License Details
page for your license to identify your license type.
