Core User CAL Suite (Includes Software Assurance)
The Core User CAL Suite is a set of user CALs (client access licenses) for key Microsoft server technologies: Windows Server, Exchange Server, SharePoint Server, and System Center Configuration Manager.
One Core User CAL Suite gives one user access to these servers on any number of computers and other devices, with the exception of System Center Configuration Manager. The System Center Configuration Manager user CML (client management license) allows any number of nonserver operating system environments (OSEs) to be managed by System Center Configuration Manager as long as only one user has access to them.
The Core User CAL Suite contains the following licenses:
- Windows Server User CAL
- Exchange Server User CAL - Standard
- SharePoint Server Standard Edition User CAL
- System Center Configuration Manager User CML
Device CALs are also available. A device CAL authorizes one computer or other device to access these servers, regardless of the number of users (for example, a shared workstation).
License Only: This license does not require media, license keys, or setup codes.
Software Assurance: Under the Software Assurance program, you have the right to install any new release of products covered in the agreement during the term of your coverage.
