Configuring RDP Connections

If you open the Connection Settings dialog box for an RDP connection (select the RDP
connection in the Connect Manger and click Settings), you can view and configure the
connection (to add new RDP connections, use New in the Connect Manager).

Use the following guidelines:

Note
In a Virtual Desktop environment, an RDP connection will be assigned by the
Virtual Desktop Broker; you do not need to create an RDP connection
manually. The Virtual Desktop Broker virtual machine can be reset from the
thin client by opening the Connection Settings dialog box of the virtual
machine, and then clicking the reset button (appears in the top-right of the
dialog box).
Connection Description - Enter the descriptive name that is to appear in the
connection list (38 characters maximum).
Host Names - Use the list to select the valid DNS server name or the IP address of the
server to which the thin client connection is to be made (you can also use Browse next
to the box to make the selection you want). For example, a list of WTS servers on the
local network from which you can select.
Note
The server name may be resolved using one of two mechanisms: DNS, and
WINS. DNS uses the default domain name in the network control panel to
attempt to construct an FQDN but will also try to resolve the name without
using the default.
Wyse VDA - When selected, the thin client will use Wyse
software to provide an "accelerated" user experience on remote desktop sessions with
high round-trip delay between the server and client.
