Hi Arslan,
I understand that you would like to know about the steps involved in installing MATLAB or other MathWorks products on a client’s computer using network license.
As a prerequisite, to install MATLAB or other MathWorks products on client’s computer, you need to be the administrator of license (or licenses) that you want to use to perform the setup. You must have a MathWorks Account and the license (or licenses) must be linked to that account.
Installation steps can be categorised as follows:
  • Install Network License Manager: This will make it easy for you to confirm that the client computers are accessing the license server correctly at the time of installation.
  • Get Network License: Before installing MathWorks products for a user, ensure that a copy of the network license file (license.dat), which contains the correct SERVER line and was configured during your organization's network license manager setup, is placed on the user's machine or a network share.
  • Choose Installation Procedure: There are options of installing online, offline and in silent mode where offine mode is helpful if you want a staff member, who may not have a MathWorks Account, to install the software for the user and in silent mode you can run the installer noninteractively.
Please go through the following MathWorks documentation on Install Products on Client Machines” for more detailed guidance: https://www.mathworks.com/help/install/ug/install-products-on-client-machines.html
I hope the provided information is helpful.
Thanks.
