AutoCAD 2009 Network License Activation.

Question

If my company registers and activates AutoCAD 2009 using a Network Licence, do we have to buy license for every workstation on the Network before we can run the AutoCAD 2009 software on the workstations? Please, I need the answer urgently because my company needs my recommendation.

Answer 1

The answer is NO, because network Licence activation involves a server that holds all the activation keys or a single group licence in setting up. Being installed on another PC in the same network, instead of usual activation method, it needs to be selected as alternative. When network activation is selected, the IP of the server needs to be entered and then the process is automated. In a few seconds the server will verify the authenticity of the installation and register it accordingly.
