WINDOWS SERVER 2022 - 10 RDS USER LICENSES

Product Information "Windows Server 2022 RDS - 10 User CALS"

Every user and every device that connects to a remote desktop session host requires CAL (Client Access License) licenses. Use the Remote Desktop licensing service to install, issue, and track Remote Desktop Services CAL licenses.

When a user or device connects to a Remote Desktop Session Host server, the latter determines if a Remote Desktop Services CAL license is required. The Remote Desktop Session Host server then requests a Remote Desktop Services CAL license from the Remote Desktop Licensing server. If an appropriate Remote Desktop Services CAL license is available on a Licensing server, the license is issued to the client to allow the connection to the Remote Desktop Session Host server and from there to the desktop or apps they are trying to use.
