General Licensing Principles for VDI
License the client for Windows and OfficeLicense for server accessLicense for any required management technologies
Windows VDARequired for all non-SA devices inside the corporate network
Required for any device outside the corporate network where the user is not the nominated primary user of device licensed inside the corporate network
A subscription licence tied to the term of the VL agreement it’s purchased through
Not available through the Open program
Counts towards the enterprise-widecommitment in an Enterprise Agreement
