To ensure you are in compliance with the Remote Desktop Services license terms, track the number of RDS Per User CALs used in your organization and be sure to have enough RDS Per User CALs installed on the license server for all of your users.

The Per User model would be best for environments where users have their own dedicated Windows device to access the RD Session Host(s).

It's your responsibility to ensure that all of your users have a valid license and zero Over-Used CALs-otherwise, you're in violation of the Remote Desktop Services license terms.ДЄn example of where one would use the Per Device model would be in an environment where there are two or more shifts using the same computers to access the RD Session Host(s).

The license server issues licenses from the available RDS CAL pool or the Over-Used RDS CAL pool. When you use the Per User model, licensing is not enforced and each user is granted a license to connect to an RD Session Host from any number of devices. The second time that device connects, as long as the license server is activated and there are available RDS CALs, the license server issues a permanent RDS Per Device CAL. When you use the Per Device model, a temporary license is issued the first time a device connects to the RD Session Host. RDS CALs can be overallocated (in breach of the Remote Desktop licensing agreement). Temporary RDS CALs are valid for 52вЂ“89 days. RDS CALs cannot be tracked within a workgroup. RDS CALs can be tracked regardless of Active Directory membership. RDS CALs are tracked by the license server. RDS CALs are assigned to a user in Active Directory. RDS CALs are physically assigned to each device. The following table outlines the differences between the two types of CALs: Per Device

License your RDS deployment with client access licenses (CALs).

Use the following information to learn about how client access licensing works in Remote Desktop Services and to deploy and manage your licenses: Once the grace period ends, clients must have a valid RDSВ CAL issued by a license server before they can log on to an RDВ Session Host server. There is a licensing grace period of 120 Days during which no license server is required. If an appropriate RDSВ CAL is available from a license server, the RDSВ CAL is issued to the client, and the client is able to connect to the RDВ Session Host server and from there to the desktop or apps they're trying to use. The RDВ Session Host server then requests an RDSВ CAL from the Remote Desktop license server. When a user or a device connects to an RDВ Session Host server, the RDВ Session Host server determines if an RDSВ CAL is needed. You use RD Licensing to install, issue, and track RDS CALs. Applies to: Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016Д®ach user and device that connects to a Remote Desktop Session host needs a client access license (CAL).
