How does the ABA license work in an on-premise console environment?

If we have laptops protected by ABA with an on-premise console and these devices have not a regular connection with the console (devices are in external networks for special projects for months), how does the license work?

Could the devices will be unprotected/unlicensed after some months without a connection with the on-premise console as did Avast Enterprise Adminitration with Avast Endpoint Protection?
