Understanding KMS
KMS activates computers on a local network, eliminating the need for individual computers to connect to Microsoft. To do this, KMS uses a clientserver topology. KMS client computers can locate KMS host computers by using Domain Name System (DNS) or a static configuration. KMS clients contact the KMS host by using remote procedure call (RPC).
