Enabling Forcible RDP Connections

When the number of Windows remote desktop connections exceeds the upper limit, no more remote connections with the host resources can be established. In this case, you can enable the admin console in the bastion host to implement force logins. This means you can force the bastion host to establish login connections by forcibly logging out other logged-in users.

This topic describes how to enable the admin console configuration for enabling force RDP connections.

Constraints

  • This function is available only for hosts using the RDP protocol.
  • This function is available to user admin only.

Prerequisites

You have the management permissions for the Host Operations module.

Procedure

  1. Log in to your bastion host.
  2. Choose Operation > Host Operations to go to the Host Operations page.
  3. Click Web OPS Settings. The configuration window is displayed.
  4. Select the admin console connection mode.
  5. Click OK to return to the Host Operations page.

    After the configuration is successful, when a user attempts to log in to an RDP host, even if the number of connections exceeds the upper limit, logins of this user will be successful at the cost of forcible logouts of other users.
