Deployment of AutoCAD/Inventor Education versions to multiple sites

Hello

We are going to be rolling out Windows 7 across 120+ sites (9000 machines), 16 of which are secondary schools using the education licence version of AutoCAD and Inventor, (400+ machines)

 

Currently they all have their own 36month licence/registration for the education versions of the software. They install the software manually or they build it into an image and deploy it that way.

 

I would like to know if i can register for the education version on behalf of all these schools and setup a standardised deployment for all the sites.

The deployment also needs to be silent as it will be deployed using Symantec Altiris.

 

I see there is a guide to the deployment of the software so the main question I need answered is can I use one registration/one code to do all 16 sites.

 

If anyone has any info on best practice for this situation, it would be helpful as well.

Thanks

Scott

Where was this license obtained?  It sounds like student license where it should be institutional license.

I recommend you contact the EDU VAR for your region.

The licence was obtained from the autodesk website when downloading the education versions of the software.
The sites use licence managers with these codes or standalone installs with the codes.
A code covers 120 machines per site.
As each site registers for its self and installs for its self, nothing is standard.
I was hoping to be able to register and get a code to cover 400 education machines and deploy a standard version.
I have been through the deployment guide and can see how to get the software onto the machines; however I am going to need to make 16 versions of the deployment tasks to cover the codes/120 limit, which is unfortunate.
