Abstract
A method and system for license server synchronization are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises receiving a first capability request from a licensing server, transmitting a first capability response to the licensing server. The licensing server provides a second capability response to a device, and the second capability response is in response to a second capability request sent by the device to the licensing server. The second capability response includes one or more capabilities included in the first capability response. A server synchronization message is received from the licensing server and a request for payment is transmitted to a service provider, wherein the request for payment is generated based on the server synchronization message.
