Requirements and restrictions for borrowed activations
You need a network connection to borrow an activation. Once the activation is borrowed to a computer that computer can be disconnected from the network.
When a borrowed activation expires, the software on the computer inactivates and the activation becomes available again from the activation pool of the server (network connection not required).
You can manually return a borrowed activation to the activation server before the borrow term expires (network connection required).
