Choosing a Licensing Mode
Choose Licensing Mode
?
Windows NT Server supports two client licensing modes:
Per Server - Each concurrent connection to this
server requires a separate CLIENT ACCESS
LICENSE.
Per Seat - Each computer that accesses
Windows NT Server requires a separate CLIENT
ACCESS LICENSE.
Please click Help to fully understand the implications of the
licensing mode you choose.
Licensing Mode
Per Server for:
concurrent connections
It is a violation of the license agreement to enter a
number that EXCEEDS the actual number of CLIENT
ACCESS LICENSES purchased for this server.
Per Seat:
Use License Manager (located in the Network
Administration program group) to record the number of
CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES purchased and avoid
violation of the license agreement.
