Unit Locked: Licensing dedicates a license to a particular computer.
Floating Licensing: Allows multiple users to share a license over a local network via a server or host computer and grants or denies licenses based on availability. With floating licensing, the license is assigned to the server name and MAC address and is defined as the license server, and each client workstation running the CDS requests licenses from the server as needed. The number of available seats are stored in the license file.
