### License and usage reporting only {#reporting-sizing}

This section assumes you've configured NGINX Instance Manager to manage your NGINX instances for licensing and usage reporting only. NGINX commercial license and usage reporting is done in an “unmanaged” way, where NGINX sends a request periodically to NGINX Instance Manager solely for counting purposes. For more information, see how you would [Prepare your environment for reporting]({{< relref "/solutions/about-subscription-licenses.md#set-up-environment" >}}).

Therefore, the requirements for NGINX Instance Manager when used solely for licensing and usage reporting are minimal.
