Start WinRoute
Upon WinRoute is started, the table of clients include the firewall only. Number of used
licenses is zero.
Note: Table of clients is displayed in the Active Hosts section in the Administration Con-
sole — see chapter 17.1.
License counter
Whenever a communication of any WinRoute’s client is detected, the IP address is used
to identify whether a record does already exist in the table of clients. If not, a new record
including the IP address is added to the table and the number of licenses is raised by 1.
The following items are considered as clients:
1. All hosts from which users are connected to the firewall
2. All clients of the WinRoute’s proxy server (see chapter 5.5)
3. All local hosts communication of which is routed between Internet interfaces and
WinRoute’s local interfaces. The following items belong to this group:
• Each host which is connected to the Internet while no user is authenticated from
the host,
• All local servers mapped from the Internet,
• All VPN clients connected to the local network from the Internet.
Licenses are not limited by:
• DNS requests handled by DNS Forwarder (Warning: If clients use a DNS server located
outside the local network, such communication is considered as communication with
the Internet),
• DHCP traffic (using either the WinRoute’s DHCP server or another DHCP server in-
stalled on the WinRoute host),
• Local communication between the firewall (e.g. access to shared disks) and hosts
from which no user is connected to the firewall.
