Product description

Software Microsoft Windows Server Cal - This is the official document (not software), giving the right to the user to access the Windows server on the network. The client license is needed: to access the server from the device on the network, or remote, regardless of the OS used; To use basic servers services. With this licensing scheme, the total number of client licenses should be equal to the total number of client PCs or users on the network.

The Microsoft Windows Server Cal license is required to the editions of Microsoft Windows Server Standard and Datacenter release. In addition, additional CAL licenses are purchased in addition to Microsoft Windows Server Cal to access remote desktops (RDS CAL) and Active Directory Rights Services (AD RMS CAL).

Microsoft Windows Server Cal client licenses can be on the device and user. License for device Allows any number of users to access the server software from one device. This type of CAL is convenient for those organizations where several users work on one device.

License for the user Allows you to access the server software to the server software from any number of devices. This CAL type is convenient for those organizations where many mobile employees who need access to a corporate network with arbitrary devices, or employees using multiple network access devices.

Licensing Product

Windows Server 2016 Licensing Models

For Windows Server 2016, there are two licensing models: based on nuclei and based on client licenses (CAL). In the releases of Windows Server Standard, Datacenter or MultiPoint for each user and / or device, you must purchase a Windows Server Cal or Windows Server and Remote Desktop Services (RDS) license. Windows Server Cal license gives a user or device to access to any Windows Server release of a similar or earlier version. Window Server Cal License provides access to multiple Windows Server licenses.

The cost of Windows Server 2016 licenses for Standard and Datacenter issues is calculated by the number of cores, not processors. Such a model is best suited for media environments, simplifies the transfer of Windows Server's workloads due to the benefit of the hybrid use Azure and reduces the discrepancies between different licensing methods.

To use remote work desks, Active Directory Rights and Other Additional and Improved Functions, you need to purchase special CAL licenses.

Releases Windows Server 2016 Standard and Datacenter: licensing by the number of cores

• All physical kernels of the server are subject to licensing. The license cost of each physical server is determined on the basis of the number of nuclei of the processors installed in it.
• Each server must have a minimum license for 16 cores.
• Each physical processor should have a license at least 8 cores.
• Licenses will be sold in sets of two nuclei.
• For each physical server, you must acquire at least eight sets of licenses for two cores. The license cost for two cores is one eighth license cost for two processors of the appropriate release of Windows Server 2012 R2.
• Standard release provides two OSE rights or two Hyper-V containers if all the physical kernels of the server are licensed. For every two additional virtual machines, it requires re-licensing of all server cores.
• The license cost of 16 nuclei for Windows Server 2016 Datacenter and Standard is equal to the cost of a license for two processors of the corresponding issues of Windows Server 2012 R2.

Up to 8 cores on the processor and 16 nuclei on the server: Customers will receive a license at least 8 cores for each processor or 16 nuclei for each server.

More than 8 cores on the processor and 16 nuclei on the server: Customers will receive licenses for servers with more than 8 cores on the processor or 16 cores to the server.

According to this model, the network based on Microsoft server products needs at least one server license and is usually larger than client access licenses (CAL).

Server license - This is a document (not software), which:

• Required for each server running the server by Microsoft.
• Gives the right licensee to use (install and operate) server software for Microsoft on one server.

Client Access License - Official document (not software), giving the right to the user to access the server in the network.

The client license is needed:

• To access the server from the device on the network, or remote, regardless of the OS used.
• To use basic servers services (for more information, see the descriptions of individual products in the following sections).

External Connector license - Official document (not software), which gives the right to external users (customers and business partners) of the company to access server software organizations.

Types of client licenses

Distinguish client licenses "on the device" and "to the user"

Client Access Licensing Schemes

There are several ways to provide client access to server software: client licenses for each device or each user, limiting the number of simultaneous connections to the server, as well as using the External Connector license for unlimited connection of external users.

Licensing for a device or user This means that the license refers to a separately taken device or user using a server application located on any server on the network. This method is often used on a network with multiple servers and is offered for all of the above server products. With this licensing scheme, the total number of client licenses should be equal to the total number of client PCs or users on the network.

Restricting the number of connections to the server (licensing mode "to server" or "Per Server") means that the required number of client licenses is equal to the maximum number of devices or users simultaneously accessing a separately taken server at each specific point in time. When the maximum permissible number of simultaneous access sessions, other devices or users trying to access the services of this server will not have such an opportunity. This licensing method is more suitable for the case of a network with one server, rarely using the server's basic functions, or in case of remote access to the server, for CD-ROM servers, or other server solutions that take into account the non-standard use of the server. (However, it should be borne in mind that each computer can simultaneously run multiple applications that access various servers on the network). Thus, the number of purchased client licenses for each server should be equal to the maximum possible number of simultaneous connections to the server. Such a client access licensing scheme applies only to Microsoft Windows Server.

Licensing using EXTERNAL CONNECTOR Ensures the need to count and acquire individual client licenses for each business partner or end user organization and allows you to provide access to the server for an unlimited number of non-employees of the company. Employees, external persons working under the contract, agents, service providers or other persons who provide services on behalf of the Organization (as well as affiliates, if any) cannot be used by the External Connector license. The External Connector license should be purchased for each copy of the server software. Thus, the number of licenses External Connector should be equal to the number of servers, access to which external users or devices.

Server license version and client access licenses

The server program and client license are indicated by a specific version number. License to client access allows you to access the server program with the same (or lower) version number. For example, the Exchange 2007 CAL license can be used to access Exchange Server 2003, but not vice versa.

The same client access licenses are used to appeal to servers from any editors. For example, Windows 2008 CAL license or a license of Windows 2008 External Connector can be used both access to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Server Standard Edition and access to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition.

Use of software or hardware multiplexers to access customers

The use of software or hardware that reduces the number of devices directly accessing the server services does not affect the needs for purchasing licenses to CALS client access. The required number of CALS licenses is equal to the total number of devices at the input of such a device. In the example below you need to purchase three CALS licenses, despite the fact that only one device directly connects to the server:

On this page you will find examples of the typical and simple scenarios of using Microsoft servers. For more complex cases, use combinations of these simple examples.

Briefly about the main thing:

Examples:

Three people using three devices use one instance of Windows Server on one server. At the same time or in turn - it does not matter.

License need:

1. Three Windows Server client licenses for three devices with which people use the server.

Three people using five devices use one instance of Windows Server on one server. At the same time or in turn - it does not matter.

License need:

1. Licenses for all physical cores in the server. But at least 16 licenses on the server.
2. Three Windows Server client licenses for three people using the server.

Three people using five devices use two instances of Windows Server on two different servers. At the same time or in turn - it does not matter.

License need:

Three people using three devices use two instances of Windows Server on two different servers. At the same time, two people using two devices use the graphical interface of one of the servers. At the same time or in turn - it does not matter.

License need:

1. Licenses for all physical cores in two servers. But at least 16 licenses on the server.
2. Three Windows Server client licenses for three devices with which people use servers.
3. Two Windows Server client licenses for two devices with which people use the server graphical interface.

Three people using five devices use two instances of Windows Server on two different servers. At the same time, two people using three devices using the graphical interface of one of the servers. At the same time or in turn - it does not matter.

License need:

1. Licenses for all physical cores in two servers. But at least 16 licenses on the server.
2. Three Windows Server client licenses for three people using servers.
3. Two client licenses of Windows Server for two people using a graphical server interface.

Three people using three devices use an instance of Windows Server and an instance of SQL Server. At the same time or in turn - it does not matter. The number of connections to SQL Server is not important.

License need:

1. Licenses for all physical cores in the server. But at least 16 licenses on the server.
2. Three Windows Server client licenses for three devices with which people use Windows Server.
3. License for server.
4. Three SQL Server client licenses for three devices with which people use the server.

Three people using three devices use the graphical interface of the Windows Server instance in order to run a business application (for example, 1C) using an instance of SQL Server on another server. At the same time or in turn - it does not matter. The number of connections to SQL Server is not important.
