RDP-Specific Settings
Domain
Specify the domain of the remote Windows host (e.g., 5XRUBY.COM). Required if the target machine is joined to an Active Directory domain.
Security Type
Select the security protocol level for the RDP connection:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| any | Auto-negotiate, determined by the server |
| nla | Network Level Authentication, most secure option |
| nla-ext | NLA Extended |
| tls | TLS-encrypted connection |
| vmconnect | Hyper-V VM Connect mode |
| rdp | Standard RDP security layer |
Ignore Certificate
When enabled, the system ignores SSL/TLS certificate checks from the remote server. Note: Only recommended for trusted internal environments.
Disable Verification
When enabled, skips RDP connection identity verification. Note: Disabled by default; enable only in specific scenarios.
Authentication
Select the authentication service for the RDP connection, such as LDAP or other external authentication sources.
