Creating An Rdp Session - ADDER ADDERLink INFINITY 3000 User Manual

CREATING AN RDP SESSION

This section details the steps required to configure a typical RDP session within
ADDERLink INFINITY Manager (AIM). This diagram shows a typical connection layout:
ALIF3000
ALIF TX
In the sample layout above, the ALIF3000 is connected to two separate networks:
• The Infinity network gives access to hosts that are connected via ALIF transmitters,
• The Corporate network is where the virtual machines running RDP hosts reside.
Prerequisites
• The AIM Manager is running firmware version 4.11 or above.
• The ALIF3000 is connected to the networks and is recognised by the AIM Manager.
• The Corporate network has a DHCP server to issue the CATx interface its IP
address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS settings.

To create an RDP session
1 Within the AIM Manager's network interface, navigate to the Transmitters page.
2 At the top of the page, click on Add VDI.
The VDI Type will default to RDP.
3 Enter the RDP Name for the host.
4 Enter the IP Address or the DNS Name for the RDP host.
5 If the RDP Host is part of a Windows domain, enter the Domain Name here (this is
essential as it cannot be entered during login). Otherwise leave this blank.
6 If you are not using the default 3389 port, change the RDP Port number.
7 Click Save. A channel for the transmitter will be generated based on the transmitter's
name, in this instance Channel My Workstation:
By default, the new channel will have no users or user groups access assigned.
