Device CALs and Sprint EVDO modems

[Guest Michael Chan]

I occasionally access a (2003) server configured for device CALs via a

Sprint EVDO USB modem attached to a macbook by way of ssh'ing to a

firewall and setting up the RDP session via tunnel/port forward.

 

Each time I connect via the modem, the License Server sees it as a

different device , ip octet (dot) "area1". Sprint does not offer

static IPs. I am looking for suggestions on how would I get the

License Server to recognize (and re-recognize) this computer (or at

least the modem) as one device? This is not an issue when tunneling

while using the wi-fi adapter or over wire from the same notebook, in

which case it recognizes it as the same computer regardless of the

interface. I feel like I am missing something simple here.

 

Thank you and best regards,

 

Michael

How much is that occasionally?

Terminal services will purge CAL if it is not used in random period of days

between 52-89 days of issuance.

A few times/week. Currently, I see 12 temporary and 3 non-temp

licenses generated for the same device.

There is no way to prohibit TSL from generating new CAL for the device that

is not in database, meaning not connected before.

You can try to change licensing mode in per user, I don't know if this

would help you?

Thanks for the suggestion. I considered per user, but this is the

only device that needs to connect via this method. My next step is to

contact sprint and find out what kind of sanitization is going on that

causes the device to appear as something unseen before each time.
