Active Directory-Based activation

A third volume activation method is available on the Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 platforms: Active Directory-Based activation.

Active Directory-Based activation uses your existing Active Directory infrastructure to activate all Office 2013 Preview VL clients through their connection to the domain. To set up Active Directory-Based activation for Office 2013 Preview, configure Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) from either a Windows 8 VL edition computer or a Windows Server 2012 computer. The Office 2013 Preview VL clients can automatically activate against the domain as long as they are running on a Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012 client computer.

Active Directory-Based activation uses the same GVLK/KMS host key pair that KMS activation uses. By using Active Directory-Based activation, the Software Protection Platform Service (SPPSvc) periodically attempts to activate the GVLK against either an Activation Object (AO) in AD DS or a discoverable KMS host if the Active Directory-Based activation attempt fails. A successful Active Directory-Based activation grants a license to the Office 2013 Preview client for 180 days.

For more information about Active Directory-Based activation, see Active Directory-Based Activation Overview.

Activating Office 2013 Preview by using the Office 2013 Preview Volume License Pack

KMS activation. You can set up an Office 2013 Preview KMS host on Windows Server 2012 through the VA (volume activation) server role. When you run the Office 2013 Preview Volume License Pack on Windows Server 2012, the VA server role is automatically loaded and the Volume Activation Tools wizard is started. Running the wizard enables you to set up an Office 2013 Preview KMS host on Windows Server 2012.

Active Directory-Based activation. You can use the Office 2013 Preview VL Pack to set up Active Directory-Based activation. After the forest is activated, each Office 2013 Preview VL client that is joined to the domain will automatically be activated. An Active Directory-Based activation lasts for 180 days, at which time the Office 2013 Preview VL client must be reactivated for an additional 180 days in order to stay activated.
