The following table outlines the differences between the two types of CALs:

CALs are tracked and enforced by the license server.

CALs are tracked but not enforced by the license server.

CALs can be tracked regardless of Active Directory membership

CALs cannot be tracked within a workgroup.

You can revoke up to 20% of CALs

You cannot revoke any CALs.

Temporary CALs are valid for 52-89 days.

Temporary CALs are not available.

CALs cannot be overallocated.

CALs can be overallocated (in breach of the Remote Desktop licensing agreement).

Note about CAL versions

The CAL used by users or devices must correspond to the version of Windows Server that the user or device is connecting to. You can't use older CALs to access newer Windows Server versions, but you can use newer CALs to access older Windows Server versions.

The following table shows the CALs that are compatible on RD Session Hosts and RD Virtualization Hosts.

2000 CAL 2003 CAL 2003 R2 CAL 2008 CAL 2008 R2 CAL 2012 CAL 2016 CAL

2000 license server Yes No No No No No No

2003 license server Yes Yes Yes No No No No

2008, 2008 R2 license server Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No No

2012 license server Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No

2012 R2 license server Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No

2016 license server Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes

Any RDS license server can host licenses from all previous versions of Remote Desktop Services and the current version of Remote Desktop Services. For example, a Windows Server 2016 RDS license server can host licenses from all previous versions of RDS, while a Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS license server can only host licenses up to Windows Server 2012 R2.

Support for Gen 2 VMs

You can now use Gen 2 VMs (virtual machines) with Remote Desktop. You can use Gen 2 VMs as template images for pooled/personal VM collections and personal session desktop collections. There's no additional configuration required, so deploy at will.

Pen remoting support

Pen devices - like those available with Surface Pro 3 devices - are now supported for use through Remote Desktop connections. Technically, you always could use the pens, but it was treated like a mouse. Now we treat pen devices as equal to your mouse, fingertip, and keyboard. David Bélanger has a great post covering how to use pen remoting.
