Hello,
When a computer that has previously connected to a host session connects to the new license server configured with 2025 CALs, it may not immediately acquire a new 2025 CAL. This is because the Remote Desktop Licensing service may still recognize the computer based on its previous connection history and allow the connection using an existing CAL.
The computer will typically acquire a new 2025 CAL from the new server when the existing CAL expires or when the licensing grace period ends. The grace period allows clients to connect even if a license server is unavailable, but eventually, they will need to acquire a valid CAL from the new server.
If the connection is successful without a new CAL being issued, it is likely due to the grace period or the server recognizing the client based on previous connections.
