Terminal Services Client Access License (TS CAL) Availability

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

A terminal server must be able to contact (discover) a Terminal Services license server in order to request Terminal Services client access licenses (TS CALs) for users or computing devices that are connecting to the terminal server. In addition, the Terminal Services licensing mode configured on a terminal server must match the type of TS CALs available on the license server.

Note:  A terminal server running Windows Server 2008 can only communicate with a license server running Windows Server 2008.
