BlueZone Licensing

Chapter 7

License Compliance

BlueZone was designed expressly for ease of administration, especially distribution.  BlueZone may be completely pre-configured and distributed many different ways including but not limited to, from a customized BlueZone Image, centralized distribution over private wide area networks, and even across the Internet.

SEE  Chapter - 5 Configuring BlueZone, for more information about pre-configuring BlueZone for distribution.

The powerful administrative functions of BlueZone make it extremely easy to distribute to Your End users.  BlueZone was designed to make distribution and administration as easy as possible.  However, the administrators of the BlueZone license must ensure strict compliance with the BlueZone License Agreement.

SEE  Help:About in any BlueZone emulation client to determine what type of license is installed.

Types of BlueZone Licences

Single User License (SUL) holders may only install BlueZone on one computer.  Each user is supplied with a unique BlueZone Key, which is used to register BlueZone via the SEAGULL Registration Wizard.  The SEAGULL Registration Wizard supplies a Software Activation File which is required in order for BlueZone emulation clients to operate.

Concurrent User License (CUL) holders may make and distribute unlimited copies of BlueZone, but must ensure the proper use of the BlueZone License Manager software that limits the number concurrent BlueZone users.  A  Software Activation File is required in order for BlueZone emulation clients to operate.

The Concurrent User License is the preferred licensing model for public Internet distribution of BlueZone.  Concurrent User Licensing eliminates the need to track end user installations since this is automatically done by the BlueZone License Manager.
