About KMS bulk Activation client

If a company's internal client batch deployment of the system, the next step is to activate the system and OFFICE activation, if a single installation key is time-consuming and inefficient, fortunately Microsoft provides KMS batch activation mode, which can efficiently carry out batch client activation.

DNS server related settings: add new other records: _ vlmcs, _ tcp, port number: 1688, and the host points to the KMS host, so that the client can activate through DNS search for SRV host resource records.

Deploying KMS hosts prior to WIN SERVER 2012 requires only the following three commands:

Slmgr-KMS key of the ipk host

Slmgr-skms IP/FQDN:1688 (this IP or FQDN is the IP address or fully qualified domain name to be the KMS host)

Slmgr-ato (automatically activated)

Note: when activating, you must ensure that 25 client machines need to apply for activation at the same time. In order to meet the effective count of KMS hosts, you can use a batch to increase the count.

Note: in the domain environment, the domain client enters the system and the client can be activated automatically. If in some confidential departments for the sake of security, in the workgroup and do not connect to the external network environment, you can use the bulk activation management tool for agent activation (VAMT)
