4.6 – rdp.html

The /rdp.html page is the heart of the SparkView installation and can be used to connect to a remote RDP server. The connection runs entirely within the browser used, thanks to SparkView. 
 
 ⚠️ Important! 
 Normally, the connection to RDP servers and applications is controlled via the portal. The direct call of the /rdp.html should only be used if a target is to be addressed once or temporarily and not saved. 
 
 After you open the page, you have the following options to configure the connection to the desired destination: 
 Tab „General“: 
 
 Ability to upload an .rdp file to establish the connection 
 Computer (IP address or host name of the target system)
