Can a user add seats to current NIOSII embedded license? Or is that an additional purchase?

Hi DNewm1,

Referring to https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/support/support-resources/support-centers/licensing.html, Nios® II Embedded Design Suite tool is free but you must have a seat license to the Nios II IP core or a development kit to generate an FPGA programming file and flash programming files. There is no license fee for developing software using only the Nios II Software Build Tools for Eclipse

Thanks.
