It was my understanding they were asking what constitutes one unit (out of the 100k free units we are allowed per year). For example, should we be counting the number of installs? Or number of concurrent users (e.g. what happens when a user installs the software on 5 machines but only runs one at a time?)? Or number of downloads? What happens if the same user downloads the app 100 times? When users uninstall the app, do we get a unit back? The point is, we need a very concrete definition of how to count units. > > 2.

I guess I am asking about Cisco's mechanism, since it is the one that we will be bound by. I guess this would be much simpler if Cisco hit the licensing upper limit, because then we wouldn't need to keep on counting. Gili
