Questions tagged [remote-desktop-gateway]

Remote Desktop Gateway (RD Gateway) is a role service on Microsoft Windows Server that enables authorized remote users to connect to resources on an internal corporate or private network, from any Internet-connected device that can run the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) client. The network resources can be Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) servers, RD Session Host servers running RemoteApp programs, or computers with Remote Desktop enabled.
