Microsoft Windows Server 2022 Standard - 16 Core License + 10 CALs. *Microsoft requires a minimum of 16-cores per server and at least 8-cores per processor.

Windows Server CALs (Client Access Licenses) grant a client device or user the right to access and use Windows Server. CALs are required in addition to the server license for each client device or user directly or indirectly accessing the Windows Server software.

A Windows Server Client Access License (CAL) is a license that gives a user or device the right to access services, such as printing or access to a file share, from a server running the Windows Server operating system (OS).

Use the following steps to generate a per User CALs report:

1.       In Remote Desktop Licensing Manager right-click the license server, click Create Report, and then click CAL Usage.

2.       The report is created and a message appears to confirm that the report was successfully created. Click OK to close the message.

With user CALs, each user can connect to the server software from any number of devices. The devices are not counted, but only a set number of users can connect. Per-device mode operates in much the same way, but limits the number of devices which can connect, rather than the number of users.
