Windows Server is Microsoft's solution for workgroup file, print, and communication servers, as well as for Internet content delivery. This is a user client access licence (CAL) for Windows Server Standard and Windows Server Enterprise.
A CAL is needed for every device or user accessing the server for using file services, printing services, remote access service, or terminal services, or any authenticated users accessing Windows Server as a Web server or an application server. For a significant number of authenticated Internet users, an external connector licence is available.
This user CAL authorises a user to access Windows Server from any device (for example, when an employee accesses the server from a computer at work and another at home). Device CALs are also available. A device CAL authorises one computer to access Windows Server, regardless of the number of users (for example, on a shared workstation).
Note: This licence does not require media, licence keys, or setup codes.
