A license server must be activated to certify the license server and allow the license server to issue Remote Desktop Services client access licenses (RDS CALs). You can activate a license server by using the Activate Server Wizard in the Remote Desktop Licensing Manager tool. There are three methods by which you can activate your license server: • • • When you activate the license server, Microsoft provides the server with a limited-use digital certificate that validates server ownership and identity. Microsoft uses an X.509 industry standard certificate for this purpose. By using this certificate, a license server can make subsequent transactions with Microsoft. If a license server is not activated, the license server can only issue temporary RDS Per Device CALs, which are valid for 90 days, or RDS Per User CALs. The Windows Server® 2008 operating system provides a license management system for Terminal Services known as Terminal Services Licensing (TS Licensing). This system allows terminal servers to obtain and manage Terminal Services client access licenses (TS CALs) for devices and users that are connecting to a terminal server. TS Licensing supports terminal servers that run Windows Server 2008 as well as terminal servers running Windows Server® 2003 or Windows® 2000 Server.
