Configuring license servers for Windows 2016 RDP

If you setup your RDP deployment from a central broker server, this shouldn't be neccesary. If you have installed The RDS role manually though, it may not pick up your licensing servers. 

To set this, open the local group policy editor and browse to the following:

Computer Configuration -> Admin Templates -> Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services -> Remote Desktop Session Host -> Licensing

In the Use the specified Remote Desktop license servers key, enter the name of your licensing server or servers separated by commas. Also make sure this is set to enabled.


Also check the Set the Remote Desktop licensing mode key is set correctly. Per User if you have User CAL's, Per Device is you have Device CAL's
