How to configure RX-RDP to support RD Gateway for the Remote Desktop Services deployment

The RX-RDP device supports RD Gateway for the Remote Desktop Services deployment. The device should be configured properly based on the different deployment scenarios as described below:

Scenario #1:
If the Remote Desktop Services deployment (besides RD Session Host and RD Gateway) also contains the RD Connection Broker and RD Web Access servers, then there is no need to specify the Gateway address, as the address will be obtained from the RD Web Access server. In this case, simply select the ‘Enable RemoteApp and Desktop Connections’ check-box in the RX-RDP setting menu and specify the address of the RD Web Access server in such case.
 
Scenario #2:
If the RDS deployment does not include the Web Access server but includes the RD Gateway, then RX-RDP should be configured as follows:
  1. The ‘Enable RemoteApp and Desktop Connections’ check-box should not be selected.
  2. Address of target RD Session Host should be specified.
  3. Following Custom Parameter must be specified: /g:gateway.IP.or.address.
This will be enough when the RD Gateway and RD Session Host belong to the same AD domain, as the credentials provided by the user on the logon screen will be used first for the authentication on RD Gateway and then for authentication on the RD Session Host.

Scenaro #3:
If the RD Gateway requires different credentials then the only option is specifying the credentials as additional Custom Parameters by using one of the following:
  1. /g:gateway.IP.or.address;/gu:gw_username;/gp:gw_password
  2. /g:gateway.IP.or.address;/gu:gw_domain\gw_username;/gp:gw_password
 
Note: Semicolon characters (;) without whitespaces must be used for separating the parameters.
