This Installation Code combines the Volume ID, MAC address and Hostname. This combination makes the cheating significantly more difficult.
Pros/Cons
+ Cheating is extremely difficult due to the 3 used parameters
+ If an image tool is used, the MAC address is still different
+ Good within a network because the MAC address must be unique
+ Works in single user and network environment
- Needs more often a re-licensing – more administration overhead
- See considerations above for multiple network cards
- Restricted use in network environment with Windows 98 / NT machines
- Allows several installations on the same machine.
Recommendation
• | Should be used for environments were heavy copy protection is needed and several installations on one machine should not be prohibited. Otherwise use installation code 8. |
This feature is only available in the Professional Edition.
