Hi Jerry,
through the licensing portal, in the event that you have active maintenance, it is possible to remotely deactivate the license on a computer that we do not have at hand or that has had hardware or other problems. When maintenance is NOT active, you can always transfer the license but you must physically release it from the currently licensed computer and activate it on the new machine. Only in this situation do you need an internet connection, so that the process can be registered on the license server. I hope I have been clear.
Regards,
Francesco

If you only use Alibre on one pc it isn't an issue. I believe I am right in saying Alibre will remotely release your license in the event of a computer failure regardless of current maintenance status.
If you use more than one pc there is, or was, another option. I paid a bit extra and can use Alibre on any pc I like without moving the license although only one at a time, I find it very handy as I have a desktop and laptop at work and home.
I must have the mobility license. It does require internet access to open and close Alibre every session.

The portal becomes useful if
A) you forget to deactivate licence on one computer before leaving where it is located, then need to use licence on another computer.
B) Computer fails, is rolled back, or is stolen.
The portal then allows you to instantly release the licence activation yourself (at the server end) for the machine that you don't have access to, regardless of time of day.
