Remote Access

Applies To: Windows Server (Semi-Annual Channel), Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 10

The Remote Access guide provides you with an overview of the Remote Access server role in Windows Server 2016, and covers the following subjects:

For more information about other networking technologies, see Networking in Windows Server 2016.

The Remote Access server role is a logical grouping of these related network access technologies: Remote Access Service (RAS), Routing, and Web Application Proxy. These technologies are the role services of the Remote Access server role. When you install the Remote Access server role with the Add Roles and Features Wizard or Windows PowerShell, you can install one or more of these three role services.

Do not attempt to deploy Remote Access on a virtual machine (VM) in Microsoft Azure. Using Remote Access in Microsoft Azure is not supported. You cannot use Remote Access in an Azure VM to deploy VPN, DirectAccess, or any other Remote Access feature in Windows Server 2016 or earlier versions of Windows Server. For more information, see Microsoft server software support for Microsoft Azure virtual machines.

Remote Access Service (RAS) — RAS Gateway

When you install the DirectAccess and VPN (RAS) role service, you are deploying the Remote Access Service Gateway (RAS Gateway). You can deploy the RAS Gateway a single tenant RAS Gateway virtual private network (VPN) server, a multitenant RAS Gateway VPN server, and as a DirectAccess server.

RAS Gateway — Single Tenant. By using RAS Gateway, you can deploy VPN connections to provide end users with remote access to your organization’s network and resources. If your clients are running Windows 10, you can deploy Always On VPN, which maintains a persistent connection between clients and your organization network whenever remote computers are connected to the Internet. With RAS Gateway, you can also create a site-to-site VPN connection between two servers at different locations, such as between your primary office and a branch office, and use Network Address Translation (NAT) so that users inside the network can access external resources, such as the Internet. In addition, RAS Gateway supports Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), which provides dynamic routing services when your remote office locations also have edge gateways that support BGP.

RAS Gateway — Multitenant. You can deploy RAS Gateway as a multitenant, software-based edge gateway and router when you are using Hyper-V Network Virtualization or you have VM networks deployed with virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs). With the RAS Gateway, Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and Enterprises can enable datacenter and cloud network traffic routing between virtual and physical networks, including the Internet. With the RAS Gateway, your tenants can use point-so-site VPN connections to access their VM network resources in the datacenter from anywhere. You can also provide tenants with site-to-site VPN connections between their remote sites and your CSP datacenter. In addition, you can configure the RAS Gateway with BGP for dynamic routing, and you can enable Network Address Translation (NAT) to provide Internet access for VMs on VM networks.

The RAS Gateway with multitenant capabilities is also available in Windows Server 2012 R2.

• Always On VPN. Always On VPN enables remote users to securely access shared resources, intranet Web sites, and applications on an internal network without connecting to a VPN.

Routing

You can use Remote Access to route network traffic between subnets on your Local Area Network. Routing provides support for Network Address Translation (NAT) routers, LAN routers running BGP, Routing Information Protocol (RIP), and multicast-capable routers using Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP). As a full-featured router, you can deploy RAS on either a server computer or as a virtual machine (VM) on a computer that is running Hyper-V.

To install Remote Access as a LAN router, either use the Add Roles and Features Wizard in Server Manager and select the Remote Access server role and the Routing role service; or type the following command at a Windows PowerShell prompt, and then press ENTER.

Web Application Proxy

Web Application Proxy is a Remote Access role service in Windows Server 2016. Web Application Proxy provides reverse proxy functionality for web applications inside your corporate network to allow users on any device to access them from outside the corporate network. Web Application Proxy pre-authenticates access to web applications using Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), and also functions as an AD FS proxy.

To install Remote Access as a Web Application Proxy, either use the Add Roles and Features Wizard in Server Manager and select the Remote Access server role and the Web Application Proxy role service; or type the following command at a Windows PowerShell prompt, and then press ENTER.

Remote Desktop — Allow access to your PC

Applies to: Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2

You can use Remote Desktop to connect to and control your PC from a remote device by using a Microsoft Remote Desktop client (available for Windows, iOS, macOS and Android). When you allow remote connections to your PC, you can use another device to connect to your PC and have access to all of your apps, files, and network resources as if you were sitting at your desk.

You can use Remote Desktop to connect to Windows 10 Pro and Enterprise, Windows 8.1 and 8 Enterprise and Pro, Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate, and Windows Server versions newer than Windows Server 2008. You can’t connect to computers running a Home edition (like Windows 10 Home).

To connect to a remote PC, that computer must be turned on, it must have a network connection, Remote Desktop must be enabled, you must have network access to the remote computer (this could be through the Internet), and you must have permission to connect. For permission to connect, you must be on the list of users. Before you start a connection, it’s a good idea to look up the name of the computer you’re connecting to and to make sure Remote Desktop connections are allowed through its firewall.

How to enable Remote Desktop

The simplest way to allow access to your PC from a remote device is using the Remote Desktop options under Settings. Since this functionality was added in the Windows 10 Fall Creators update (1709), a separate downloadable app is also available that provides similar functionality for earlier versions of Windows. You can also use the legacy way of enabling Remote Desktop, however this method provides less functionality and validation.

Windows 10 Fall Creator Update (1709) or later

You can configure your PC for remote access with a few easy steps.

1. On the device you want to connect to, select Start and then click the Settings icon on the left.
2. Select the System group followed by the Remote Desktop item.
3. Use the slider to enable Remote Desktop.
4. It is also recommended to keep the PC awake and discoverable to facilitate connections. Click Show settings to enable.
5. As needed, add users who can connect remotely by clicking Select users that can remotely access this PC.
   1. Members of the Administrators group automatically have access.
6. Make note of the name of this PC under How to connect to this PC. You’ll need this to configure the clients.

Windows 7 and early version of Windows 10

To configure your PC for remote access, download and run the Microsoft Remote Desktop Assistant. This assistant updates your system settings to enable remote access, ensures your computer is awake for connections, and checks that your firewall allows Remote Desktop connections.

All versions of Windows (Legacy method)

To enable Remote Desktop using the legacy system properties, follow the instructions to Connect to another computer using Remote Desktop Connection.

Should I enable Remote Desktop?

If you only want to access your PC when you are physically using it, you don’t need to enable Remote Desktop. Enabling Remote Desktop opens a port on your PC that is visible to your local network. You should only enable Remote Desktop in trusted networks, such as your home. You also don’t want to enable Remote Desktop on any PC where access is tightly controlled.

Be aware that when you enable access to Remote Desktop, you are granting anyone in the Administrators group, as well as any additional users you select, the ability to remotely access their accounts on the computer.

You should ensure that every account that has access to your PC is configured with a strong password.

Why allow connections only with Network Level Authentication?

If you want to restrict who can access your PC, choose to allow access only with Network Level Authentication (NLA). When you enable this option, users have to authenticate themselves to the network before they can connect to your PC. Allowing connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with NLA is a more secure authentication method that can help protect your computer from malicious users and software. To learn more about NLA and Remote Desktop, check out Configure NLA for RDS Connections.

If you’re remotely connecting to a PC on your home network from outside of that network, don’t select this option.

Следует ли включать удаленный рабочий стол? Should I enable Remote Desktop?

Если вы будете использовать свой компьютер, только когда непосредственно сидите за ним, вам не нужно включать удаленный рабочий стол. If you only want to access your PC when you are physically using it, you don’t need to enable Remote Desktop. Включение удаленного рабочего стола открывает порт на компьютере, видимый в локальной сети. Enabling Remote Desktop opens a port on your PC that is visible to your local network. Удаленный рабочий стол следует включать только в доверенных сетях, например, в домашней сети. You should only enable Remote Desktop in trusted networks, such as your home. Кроме того, не стоит включать удаленный рабочий стол на любом компьютере, доступ к которому строго контролируется. You also don’t want to enable Remote Desktop on any PC where access is tightly controlled.

Имейте в виду, что включив доступ к удаленному рабочему столу, вы предоставляете остальным пользователям в группе «Администраторы» и другим выбранным вами пользователям возможность удаленного доступа к их учетным записям на компьютере. Be aware that when you enable access to Remote Desktop, you are granting anyone in the Administrators group, as well as any additional users you select, the ability to remotely access their accounts on the computer.

Следует убедиться, что для каждой учетной записи, которая имеет доступ к вашему компьютеру, настроен надежный пароль. You should ensure that every account that has access to your PC is configured with a strong password.

Почему следует разрешать подключения только с проверкой подлинности на уровне сети? Why allow connections only with Network Level Authentication?

Если вы хотите ограничить доступ к компьютеру, разрешите доступ только с проверкой подлинности на уровне сети (NLA). If you want to restrict who can access your PC, choose to allow access only with Network Level Authentication (NLA). При включении этого параметра пользователи должны пройти аутентификацию в сети, чтобы подключиться к компьютеру. When you enable this option, users have to authenticate themselves to the network before they can connect to your PC. Разрешение подключений только с компьютеров с удаленным рабочим столом с NLA является более безопасным методом проверки подлинности, который поможет защитить компьютер от злоумышленников и вредоносных программ. Allowing connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with NLA is a more secure authentication method that can help protect your computer from malicious users and software. Чтобы узнать больше о NLA и удаленном рабочем столе, ознакомьтесь с разделом Configure Network Level Authentication for Remote Desktop Services Connections (Настройка NLA для подключения к удаленному рабочему столу). To learn more about NLA and Remote Desktop, check out Configure NLA for RDS Connections.

Если вы подключаетесь удаленно к компьютеру в своей домашней сети, не находясь в этой сети, не выбирайте этот параметр. If you’re remotely connecting to a PC on your home network from outside of that network, don’t select this option.
