Questions & Answers
What is the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Remote Desktop Services Client Access License (RDS CAL)?
The RDS CAL is a Microsoft license that grants users or devices legal access to Remote Desktop Services on Windows Server 2008.
Who needs a Windows Server 2008 RDS CAL?
Any user or device that connects to a Windows Server 2008 Remote Desktop session requires an RDS CAL to remain compliant with Microsoft licensing terms.
What is the difference between per-user and per-device RDS CALs?
Per-user CALs license each individual accessing the server, while per-device CALs license each endpoint used to access the server, regardless of the number of users.
How many RDS CALs do I need for my environment?
You need one RDS CAL for each user or device that concurrently connects to Remote Desktop Services on your Windows Server 2008 host.
Can I transfer Windows Server 2008 RDS CALs to another server?
RDS CALs are user- or device-based and can be reassigned, but only if you retire the original installation under Microsoft’s transfer guidelines.
Does the Windows Server 2008 RDS CAL expire?
RDS CALs for Windows Server 2008 do not expire and remain valid for the licensed server version, barring downgrade or migration scenarios.
Are Windows Server 2008 RDS CALs compatible with newer Windows Server versions?
No. Windows Server 2008 RDS CALs only permit access to Windows Server 2008 hosts; you must upgrade your CALs for newer server releases.
How do I install a Windows Server 2008 RDS CAL?
Use the Remote Desktop Licensing Manager snap-in on your Windows Server 2008 host to activate and install the RDS CAL against your license server.
What are the system requirements for Windows Server 2008 RDS CALs?
You need a properly licensed Windows Server 2008 Standard or Enterprise edition acting as a Remote Desktop Session Host with network connectivity.
How does the RDS CAL licensing model work?
You purchase a CAL for each user or device, install them on a license server, and it issues permission tokens for each concurrent Remote Desktop session.
Can I use Windows Server 2008 RDS CALs with virtual desktops?
Yes. RDS CALs support both physical and virtual session hosts, provided each user or device holds a valid CAL.
Is Software Assurance included with the RDS CAL?
No. Software Assurance is sold separately to provide upgrade rights and additional benefits beyond the base RDS CAL.
How do I activate my Windows Server 2008 RDS CAL?
In the Remote Desktop Licensing Manager, right-click the license server, choose Activate Server, and follow the wizard to enter your license key.
Do I need a separate CAL for each concurrent session?
Yes. Each simultaneous user or device session requires its own valid RDS CAL to maintain compliance.
How can I purchase additional Windows Server 2008 RDS CALs?
Additional RDS CALs can be acquired through Microsoft Volume Licensing, certified resellers, or the Microsoft Store depending on your volume needs.
