You can now view the status page from within a local browser, see [http://localhost:4241/status.html](http://localhost:4241/status.html).

!!! note
The licence status page may contain multiple licences, indicated by a row of buttons (one per licence) near the top of the page.
The details of the 12-month licence described above can be accessed by clicking on the first button in the row.
Additional buttons may appear at various times for *boosted* licences that offer more tokens. Such licences are primarily for the
benefit of [ARCHER2](https://www.archer2.ac.uk/) users. Please contact the [Service Desk](https://www.cirrus.ac.uk/support/) if you have a specific requirement that exceeds
the current Forge licence provision.

!!! note
The licence status page refers to the Arm Licence Server. Arm is the name of the company that originally developed Forge
before it was acquired by Linaro.
