Tie a remote desktop entry to a particular network adapter

Hello,
Could you give us more detail on what you would like RDM to do exactly?

Regards

Hello David,
I don't think the rdm protocol has the option to pick a netword card. I was thinking of the same thing that Oracle Virtualbox or VMware workstation. Where you can setup a network adapter/switch. And you assign the network adapter to the virtual machine.
THank you,
Franco Magliaro

You need to give me a clue on how you can script that. Perhaps a lib or a PowerShell script? I don't know where to start.

Hello David,
I don't know. I was hoping there was a win32 or some type of api for such a thing. Or something like this:

Ok,
I will see what we can do.

Hi Franco,
What you're asking, is: "not existing" in my opinion.
If you want to force traffic to use a special route or adapter, there are 2 options: either on the receiving side ("Server side"), when you have multiple NICs, bind the application (like webserver, or RDP protocol) only to specific adapters, so only via those adapters traffic can come in..
Or, on the sending side, update your routing tables to make sure traffic to a certain destination goes via a specific route (read: NIC). this is an OS setting, and completely outside the RDP client protocol, therefore RDM cannot tie an RDP entry to a particular network adapter. You should do that by updating the routing tables on the OS.

Note: changing adapter priorities will prioritize all network traffic to those other adapters, not traffic for a specific destination. And binding a virtual machine to a NIC is comparable to the Server side where you determine which adapter a VM uses.
