The Gateway Licenses sub tab allows the Account User to view and edit license keys for the RAS Server, and monitor their usage. There are two types of licensing models for the RAS Server:
License Modes
Description
Concurrent Users
· Primary RAS Server license mode for PC-Duo RAS Edition
· Counts and limits the number of concurrent Account Users by account type (Administrative, Master, Personal) that can logon to the Web Console or or open a Remote Desktop QuickConnect window at the same time; when all available licenses for a particular account type are in use and another user of that account type requests access, he/she will be denied
· Allows for unlimited use of all Host types (installed, RDS, VDI, HOD)
· Enables Remote Desktop options in the Web Console, including the QuickConnect and the Connect commands on the Host context menu
· Host on Demand service can be enabled with a special key; in this license mode, the use of HOD is unlimited
· Will take precedence over any Managed Host license keys (even Concurrent User trial keys take precedence over permanent Managed Host keys)
· Special internal category called Limited Admin is not counted but will be available to administrators when all Administrative account licenses are in use
Managed Hosts
· Primary RAS Server license mode for PC-Duo RAS Edition
· Counts and limits the total number of installed Hosts that can report to the RAS server; when the limit is reached, the next installed Host that tries to report to the Gateway Server will be denied (once a Host reports to a Gateway Server, it must be explicitly removed by the administrator)
· Counts and limits the number of concurrent transient Host instances by Host type (RDS, VDI or HOD) that can report to the Gateway Server at the same time; when the limit for any Host type is reached, the next Host instance of that type that tries to report to the Gateway Server will be denied
· Remote Desktop options in the Web Console, including the QuickConnect and the Connect commands on the Host context menu are not enabled
· Host on Demand service can be enabled with a special key; Gateway Server will count and limit the number of concurrent HOD channels; when the limit for HOD channels reached, the next attempt to connect to an HOD Host through the Gateway Server will be denied
· Will be ignored if any Concurrent User license keys are present (including trial keys)
