When you deploy a VM, it should now automatically activate itself! If you run into issues, ensure
that the Client can communicate with the Host and no rewalls are blocking the communication. Ive
found that a global any/<KMS Server>/<kms port> rule in your rewalls is handy to ensure that
random networks arent blocked from activation.
If youre interested in learning more about Windows Licensing, Microsoft has a great amount of
documentation. I suggest starting with Learn About Product Activation
(h ps://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/793423.aspx) and then moving through the relevant
sections.
