Starting a JetBrains product for the first time a license dialog will appear. Select "license server" for activation, specify "server name" http://zitlic05.desy.de:443, do a server discovery and activate. It needs to be done only once, but each user has to do it individually. A global activation is not possible.

Access to the license server is only possible from within the DESY network. Like for all concurrent licenses, access from outside, DESY guest-nets or eduroam is not possible,
