receiving a first message including user's membership subscription information from the cloud server and registering the membership subscription information in an issuance request management unit;

receiving a second message that indicates new instance information identified by user identification information from the cloud server and updating source instance information stored in a license issuance management unit to the new instance information;

transmitting a third message to the cloud server to request an instance unique identifier;

receiving the instance unique identifier from the cloud server;

updating instance unique identifier information in the issuance request management unit to the instance unique identifier received from the cloud server; and

issuing the license through the license issuance management unit.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting the license to the virtual machine interface in order to authenticate the user terminal for the authority is related to the ID and the password.
