FAQsDeployment FAQs
Question 1: Is R2 Foundation able to connect to an existing AD?
Answer: Yes. It can also be used as Active Directory (AD) member server or Domain Controller should a user decide to configure it that way. R2 Foundation has a 15 AD user limit, and this may limit its usefulness within large AD infrastructures.
Question 3: Can you deploy multiple R2 Foundation into single network?
Question 2: Is R2 Foundation able to deploy into a network where other Windows Servers, including Small Business Servers, are present? Answer: Yes. Though Windows Server CALs will not work with R2 Foundation. R2 Foundation has a hard 15 user limit. Customers cannot purchase additional Windows Server CALs to supplement this limit. Additionally R2 Foundation users do not supplement Windows Server CALs meaning an R2 Foundation user doesn’t have access rights to other Windows Servers.
Answer: Yes.
FAQs continued
Answer: R2 Foundation does allow for anonymous connections to IIS. There is a limit of 15 authenticated users.
Question 6: Is there an anonymous CAL model for Internet Information Server (IIS)?
Answer: Yes, so long as they have an appropriate CAL for the other Windows Servers . A Foundation user has no access rights to other Windows Servers.
Question 5: Is a user able to access both Windows Servers with CAL and R2 Foundation?
Answer: There are no Windows Server CALs. Foundation R2 supports 15 users. Should you wish to use Terminal Services or Rights Management, CALs are required for these server roles. A user account must be assigned to a unique user and cannot be shared.
Question 4: Does R2 Foundation require any Client Access Licenses (CALs)?
Other FAQs continued
Question 1: Can Foundation Server use non-ECC memory?
Windows Logo Certification
Answer: No, ECC memory requirements are incorporated into the license agreement for R2. ECC memory is also required for Windows Server 2008 R2 logo certification. Provided to ensure customers receive the best possible experience based on Server class hardware
