Connecting to a Session

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Description

 

There are two possible connection modes for opening a session:

 

From a configured session in the data source
With quick connect

 

Depending of the mode, Remote Desktop Manager can use a completely different application or library. For example, the external mode for Remote Desktop will use the Microsoft Remote Desktop's client (mstsc.exe), and the embedded mode will use the ActiveX.

 

Configured Session

 

You may open a session by double clicking  it in the sessions list, or by using the context menu. The session will use the default settings when double clicked. Use the context menu to specify further options.

 
Via the menus, you may specify different connection options, such as:

 

Full screen
Embedded / External mode (click here for more details)
Console or admin mode with the RDP protocol
Force prompt for credentials
Open with or without the configured VPN
Open from a template
