Windows and windows server nodes using rdp

Post by emillos91 » Thu Sep 07, 2017 8:59 am

Hi

I have a notice, when I create windows and windows server nodes following UD's guide change it to rdp and it works over rdp

When I change the network in the node to lets say 192.168.1.100 I loose the rdp session.

is there any way to use rdp and private network in labs?

it's both windows 7, windows 10, windows server 2012R2 and Windows server 2016

You have to notice that RDP session creates additional network interface inside win node specially for RDP, So dont touch interface with IP starting with 169.254..x !!!!
check in cmd..
It is interface for RDP...
another is your interface for labs and you can change IP etc....

You change ip of the wrong NIC !!!!

Use in a cmd console:

ipconfig

look for nic using address 169.254.x.x with a netmask 255.255.255.252

This is the interface for RDP -> never change setting of this one
