Table 5‑16. RDS Application Compatibility Group Policy Settings
Setting Description
Turn off Windows Installer RDS Compatibility
This policy setting specifies whether Windows Installer RDS
Compatibility runs on a per user basis for fully installed applications.
Windows Installer allows one instance of the msiexec process to
run at a time. By default, Windows Installer RDS Compatibility is
turned on.
If you enable this policy setting, Windows Installer RDS
Compatibility is turned off, and only one instance of the msiexec
process can run at a time.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Windows
Installer RDS Compatibility is turned on, and multiple per user
application installation requests are queued and handled by the
msiexec process in the order in which they are received.
Turn on Remote Desktop IP Virtualization
This policy setting specifies whether Remote Desktop IP
Virtualization is turned on.
By default, Remote Desktop IP Virtualization is turned off.
If you enable this policy setting, Remote Desktop IP Virtualization is
turned on. You can select the mode in which this setting is applied.
If you are using Per Program mode, you must enter a list of
programs to use virtual IP addresses. List each program on a
separate line (do not enter any blank lines between programs). For
example:
explorer.exe
mstsc.exe
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Remote
Desktop IP Virtualization is turned off.
Select the network adapter to be used for Remote
Desktop IP Virtualization
This policy setting specifies the IP address and network mask that
corresponds to the network adapter used for virtual IP addresses.
The IP address and network mask should be entered in Classless
Inter-Domain Routing notation. For example: 192.0.2.96/24.
If you enable this policy setting, the specified IP address and
network mask are used to select the network adapter used for the
virtual IP addresses.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Remote
Desktop IP Virtualization is turned off. A network adapter must be
configured for Remote Desktop IP Virtualization to work.
Do not use Remote Desktop Session Host server IP
address when virtual IP address is not available
This policy setting specifies whether a session uses the IP address
of the RDS host if a virtual IP address is not available.
If you enable this policy setting, the IP address of the RDS host is
not used if a virtual IP is not available. The session will not have
network connectivity.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the IP address
of the RDS host is used if a virtual IP is not available.
