The most important features of Remote Desktop Services 2012 CAL

Remote Desktop Connection Broker
Thanks to the Remote Desktop Connection Broker, client PCs equipped with a CAL are given access to all server-based PCs and features by ensuring a connection between them and virtual devices in the server center. The main tasks of the RDCB include the control of user information, the assignment of a user to a specific remote desktop and also the convenient management of desktop images. The Remote Desktop Connection Broker uses an SQL or local database for these functions.

Remote Desktop Session Host
The Remote Desktop Session Host - or session host - provides different desktops or applications, which are used by several users and who have a corresponding CAL, in several sessions. For desktop virtualization, the session host also provides the ability to interpose itself between the Remote Desktop Connection Broker and the clients. This is the so-called Redirection Mode. Furthermore, Remote Desktop Services 2012 CAL can be used to generate special collections of users, ensuring easy organization of the various host resources.

Remote Desktop Gateway
The Remote Desktop Gateway is primarily used to enable authorized users to access virtualization hosts or session hosts via the Internet from any compatible end device by means of Client Access Licenses. With the Remote Desktop Gateway, both virtual and session-based desktops and individual remote apps can be accessed. The connection between the gateway and the respective end device is established via the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP).

Remote Desktop Web Access
The Remote Desktop Web Access function ensures access to a virtual or remote desktop via a browser or also via a start menu. Remote Desktop Web Access generates an RDP file (log file) that is used by the client to access the company's infrastructure over the Internet.

Remote Desktop Virtualization Host
The Remote Desktop Visualization Host in Remote Desktop Services 2012 CAL is compatible with VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) and Windows Server 2012 R2 scenarios. There are two main types of virtual desktops: Personal Virtual Desktops, which are assigned to a specific user, and so-called desktop pools. These are a type of virtual workstations that can be accessed by multiple users. In addition, the RD Virtualization Host offers the option to host Windows-based apps via Hyper V as well.

Remote Desktop Licensing
A license server is usually required for smooth use of Remote Desktop Services 2012 and Windows Server 2012 CAL. RD Desktop Licensing can manage the required licenses for this via the RDS infrastructure. If a client requires an RDS CAL - i.e. an access license - then the session host automatically requests this directly from the license server. The user's end device can then access sessions or the virtual desktop, provided a CAL is available.

Purchase Remote Desktop Services 2012 Device CAL

If you would like to purchase an edition of the Remote Desktop Services 2012 User CAL, then two access licenses for administrative purposes are usually already included ex works. It should be noted, however, that these are used exclusively for administrative purposes. They are not designed to allow a user or his end device to access the remote services remotely. To use these services, a client therefore needs one of the two licenses to gain access - either a Device CAL or a User CAL.
