COMPUTER SYSTEM SERVICING – Grade 12
Quarter 1 - Module 7:Setup Remote Desktop Services

I. Introduction:
This module covers the Remote Desktop Services accelerates and extends desktop and
application deployments to any device, improving remote worker efficiency, while helping to keep
critical intellectual property secure and simplify regulatory compliance. Remote Desktop Services
enables virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), session-based desktops, and applications, allowing users
to work anywhere.

II. Objectives
At the end of the lesson you
are expected to:

1. Define the benefits of Remote Desktop Services roles. TLE_IACSS9-12SUCS-IIIf-jIVa-j-38

2. Enumerate the components of Remote Desktop Services. TLE_IACSS9-12SUCS-IIIf-jIVa-j-38
3. Setting-up remote desktop services role. TLE_IACSS9-12SUCS-IIIf-jIVa-j-38

III. Vocabulary List

Remote Desktop Services (RDS) - is the platform of choice for building virtualization solutions
for every end customer need, including delivering individual virtualized applications, providing
secure mobile and remote desktop access, and providing end users the ability to run their
applications and desktops from the cloud.

Terminal Server - is a server or network device that enables connections to multiple client
systems to connect to a LAN network without using a modem or a network interface.

Domain - This limits the licensing to only servers in the domain.

Forest - This allows any Terminal Server in the forest to attain a license

Network Access Protection (NAP) - is a Microsoft technology for controlling network access of
a computer, based on its health. With NAP, system administrators of an organization can
define policies for system health requirements.
IPsec connection - is the encrypted virtual private network (VPN) connection established
between two systems using the Internet protocol security (IPsec).

Internet Protocol Address (IP Address) - is a numerical label assigned to each device
connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication.
Domain Name Services (DNS Server)- A DNS server is a computer server that contains a
database of public IP addresses and their associated hostnames, and in most cases serves to
resolve, or translate, those names to IP addresses as requested.
Computer network(or network)- It is a group of devices connected to each other. Networks
may be classified into a wide variety of characteristics, such as the medium used to transport the
data, communications protocol used, scale, topology, benefit, and organizational scope.

LAN (local area network) - A computer network that interconnects computers in a limited area
such as a home, school, computer laboratory, or office building using network media.
Server - A computer system in a network that is shared by multiple users.

 HOW TO SETUP REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES

Step 1: Begin the installation

Launch Server Manager, and select "roles."
Once the roles manager screen is up, check
the box for Remote Desktop Services (see
Figure 1).

Figure 1

After clicking Next, you should see an

introduction to Remote Desktop Services (see
Figure 2).

Figure 2

Step 2: Select Remote Desktop Services roles you want to install

Remote Desktop Services (RDS) includes several components (see Figure 3). These components can
be on one machine or many. Let's take a look at each of them.
Remote Desktop Session Host: This is the new name of Terminal Server.
Remote Desktop Virtualization Host: This component integrates with Hyper-V. This allows for the
pooling of virtual machines on Hyper-V to be used for virtual desktops.
Remote Desktop Connection Broker: This component is used to bridge the user with a virtual
desktop, remote application or Terminal Server session.
Remote Desktop Licensing: This is the new name of Terminal Server licensing server that also
includes licensing for Microsoft's Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI).
Remote Desktop Gateway: This provides a single connection point for clients to connect to a
specific virtual desktop, remote app or Terminal Server session.
Remote Desktop Web Access: This provides clients an interface to access their virtual desktop,
remote app or Terminal Server sessions.
Figure 3

Step 3: Pick the license mode As with past Terminal Server licensing, there are two license options:
per device and per user (see Figure 4).

Figure 4
Step 4: Allowing access to
Terminal Server (not
required) Select which users
to give access to the local
terminal services. This
component is not required for
RDS to work. If you choose
to install "Remote Desktop
Session Host" as I have, you
will get this prompt (see
Figure 5).

Step 5: Configure the

client experience The
next screen is
"Configure Client
Experience" (see
Figure 6). This is
where you set the
defaults for the
experience the end user
will have with the VDI
system.

Figure 6
 Step 6: Configure license
scope (see Figure 7) Just as
with Terminal Server of the
past, you can configure the
scope of the license server.
You have the following two
options:
1. Domain: This limits the
licensing to only servers in
the domain.
2. Forest: This allows any
Terminal Server in the
forest to attain a license.

Figure 7

Step 7: Assigning the SSL certificate for Remote Desktop Gateway (see Figure 8) The Remote
Desktop Gateway uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to tunnel and encrypt traffic from the client. This
functionality requires a certificate. There are two options for certificates:
1. Specify a certificate from the certificate store.
2. Produce a self-signed certificate.

In either case, the client must trust the certificate.

Figure 8

Step 8: Configure network

access protection (optional)
These next few screens go
beyond the scope of RDS but
are related, so I will just cover
the basics.
Create authorization policies (see Figure
9) This is where you would configure a
policy that states who is allowed to use the
Remote Desktop Gateway.

Figure 9

Install and configure network access and protection policies (see Figure 10 and Figure 11)
This is used to configure and enforce network access polices such as IPsec and network access
protection from the client. This feature can also be used to define different policies based on users'
connectivity (dial-up or virtual private network).

Figure 10 Figure 11
Step 9: Install IIS and Remote
Desktop Web Access Remote
Desktop Web Access requires
Internet Information Services (IIS),
so the next two screens are for
installing and configuring IIS. Figure
12 is an overview screen, while
Figure 13 is the configuration screen.

F
Figure 12

Figure 13
Step 10: The final steps At this point, you're done. The last two screens just let you know what
you're installing
Figure 14), and a final screen (see Figure 15) lets you know whether any additional steps like
rebooting are required.
Figure 14

Now that you

have installed
and configured
RDS, you can
start using
Terminal
Services and
Remote Desktop
Gateway
Manager.
