Windows Server is Microsoft's solution for workgroup file, print, and communication servers, as well as for Internet content delivery. This is a device client access license (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 license is available.
This device CAL authorizes one computer to access Windows Server, regardless of the number of users (for example, on a shared workstation). User CALs are also available. A user CAL authorizes 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).
Additional Information: For additional information about the available editions of Windows Server 2003 and 2008 and the server and client licensing requirements, see the Guide to Windows Server Editions and Licensing.
Note: This license does not require media. Instructions for obtaining the license will be sent to your organisation email address after your eligibility has been verified and your administrative fee has been received.
