In short:

- The agent that runs on customer machines is Apache 2.0. Anyone can fork,
  modify, redistribute, embed in their own products, and use it commercially
  with no obligation other than preserving copyright and license notices.

- The shared Netmaker wrapper library used by both the admin and the agent
  is Apache 2.0 on the same terms.

- The admin server is licensed under the Elastic License 2.0. You can read,
  modify, and self-host it freely. The license restricts offering Edge Admin
  as a hosted or managed service to third parties, and removing or
  circumventing the license key functionality. Full terms in
  edge_admin/LICENSE.

- All other repository contents (examples, deploy configs, documentation,
  helper scripts) are Apache 2.0 unless a file explicitly states otherwise.

If you want to use Edge Admin in a way that the Elastic License 2.0 does not
permit (for example, offering a hosted service built on it), contact
WENET VIETNAM JOINT STOCK COMPANY for a commercial license.
