Based on this documentation it is possible to include producer specific attributes into the license file. But I would like to know how to do this through the FNO portal.

Those attributes in your capability response example are known as Vendor Dictionary data, which can viewed under a device in the portals. To push down information to a FlexNet Embedded license, you would need to define information in the Vendor String. There is no way to create custom attributes in FlexNet Operations and have them propagated down into the license, but you can use Custom Attributes and include them in the vendor string through a substitution variable. Then when the license is activated that information can be accessed by the application

As per my understanding from the problem description on your request "include producer specific attributes into the license file." is possible from the License Model, you can add custom attribute under the LM --> Go to "List FNE License Models" and then select your License model which you want to add custom attributes and then Edit the LM.
You can add your custom attribute value in two places 1. Notice and 2. Vendor string --> Under Replacement String. Hope this would help .
