How Metering Works
When the configuration is complete, here’s how the Metering Server communicates with the metered client.
-
A user starts a client session and initiates a host connection.
-
The session requests a license from the Metering Server, and once granted, the host connection proceeds, and the Metering Server begins to record product usage.
-
The session sends updates to the Metering Server at regular intervals until the user closes the session.
-
The metering data is available for the administrator to generate reports.
You can filter Metering Reports to show
-
activity by user, machine, IP address, and other attributes
-
concurrent usage (to comply with your license)
-
host connections
