Note that the text you included from the page was listed under the “Per Server” mode for CAL assignment. The “floating” comment was probably referring to “Per User or Device” mode.

On the page for Windows Server: ➢ The Windows CALs you acquire are designated for use exclusively with a particular server. What would be good is applications such as AV to internally schedule groups of clients for updates. That way if you had 1000 seats needing AV updates, the server would allow 50 or 100 at a time, whatever number makes sense for you. Then your CAL requirement could be lessened and it would be a marketable feature for the AV product. -- Mike Gill ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
