@Goran_Iliev We are not able to share how often we do license check-ins, as there will be periodic checks to validate a Wowza Streaming Engine license.

If you are in a controlled network, we do have offline license options available that do not rely on internet access to validate. I would recommend reaching out to our Sales Team to further discuss at: [sales@wowza.com](mailto:sales@wowza.com)
