Deployment key issue for Autocad 2010 / 2011

[amoirand]

Hi all,

We got differents licence key and not one global licence, so we're used to deploy Autocad 2008/2009 without any key (like 000-0000000 or 999-999999)
With this method, Autocad is deployed as demonstration version, and ask for a key at his first start

With Autocad 2010 and 2011 version, it does not seems to work anymore, we have to enter a valid key else we can't deploy it, it's a problem for us because as said before, we got multiple licence key.

Is there any solution to deploy Autocad without entering any real key at deployment wizard ?

Thanks

000-00000000 and 999-99999999 are not accepted serial numbers anymore since AutoCAD 2010.
These changes have been made based on the introduction of the product key component.

However, you can create your deployment using the SN 100-00000000, this is an invalid but accepted serial number in deployments.
When the clients will go to authorize the product, they will receive a message like “Invalid serial number”, at that point they only need to enter the correct serial number to authorize the product.
