- System-Wide Proxy Configuration: You could configure your operating system to route traffic through the SOCKS proxy. This method would affect all network traffic from your computer, not just MATLAB, which might not be desirable depending on your use case.
- SSH Tunneling with Dynamic Forwarding: If you're currently using SSH tunneling, you could potentially continue to do so but in a more dynamic manner. Instead of modifying the hosts file, you could create an SSH tunnel that dynamically forwards traffic to the license server. This would likely involve using the -D flag with your SSH command to create a dynamic tunnel and configuring your local network settings to use this tunnel for the specific traffic to the license server.
- Third-Party Tools: Some third-party tools and network utilities can redirect traffic through a proxy without requiring global changes to your system's network settings. These tools can be configured to redirect only specific traffic (like that from MATLAB) through the proxy.
- Consult with MathWorks Support: network configurations and licensing setups can be quite specific and complex, reaching out to MathWorks support for guidance might provide you with the most direct and applicable solution. They may have updates or workarounds that are not widely documented.
