We want to setup RD Gateway for users to reach their desktop PCs from the Internet. There are connecting to physical computers, not VMs or VDI.
While the RD Gateway server itself could be a Hyper-V VM, we are not hosting VMs or VDI for the users to log into. Everyone will be using the RD Gateway to log into their physical desktop PC.
How many Windows servers are required just to get it running for an initial small number of users to pilot?
We can add more servers if there is such a heavy traffic load in the future than the server cannot handle it, but for now I would like to know what is the minimum amount of separate Windows servers required just to make it function to securely pass RDP connections through from the Internet to an internal desktop PC.
Do we need just one server to be a RD Gateway or do we need the Gateway plus a second server to be Connection Broker and third Windows server to be a licensing server?
Do we need a separate Connection Broker server at all to allow users to connect to physical computers?
