License types and dependencies

You can use only one license type for each product. Exceptions are the Named user and Cross-client license types.

License types for client products

The license types for client products must be assigned manually to users or user groups. You can increase the number of licenses by installing additional licenses.

Named user

Users assigned to this license type have guaranteed login as the license is registered in their name. The number of licenses that can be assigned is specified in the license file.

Concurrent user

For this license type, the number of users who can log in at the same time is specified. The assigned users share the available licenses. If the number of users logged in is the same as the number of available licenses, no other users can log in. The user must wait until another user logs off. However, the administrator can end the sessions of users.
