 I don't think F-secure is licensed per server, this is taken from license
terms:
"...In case the Software or its services are shared through a network or the
Software is used to protect traffic from viruses or other malicious code at
web and e-mail servers, firewalls or gateways, you must have a license for
the total number of users whom the Software provides services to..."
