Configure License Settings for a Terminal Server

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

Each user or computing device that connects to a terminal server must have a valid Terminal Services client access license (TS CAL) issued by a Terminal Services license server.

To ensure that a terminal server can contact (discover) a Terminal Services license server to request TS CALs for clients, you need to do the following on the terminal server:

• Specify the Terminal Services Licensing Mode

• Specify the License Server Discovery Mode
