In current ANSYS installations it has a live second life: the licence-manager installer configures a bundled Tomcat on port 1084 to serve the browser-based License Management Center, which admins open at http://localhost:1084/. It is bound to the licence server itself by default, and installs log an explicit check that 1084 is free before starting Tomcat.",
