Hi i have a couple of questions regarding remote desktop gateway and network paths.
I have a scenario where the main domain is spread out in different offices and different ip ranges. offices are connected via 8 mbit vpn tunnels and everything is working as expected.
Now we have some separate servers with specialiced software running in its own routable domain. These are in a hosted eviroment. These servers are using windows 2012 rds gateway for connections. All users have been connecting to these servers like this for a long time. Everything here is also working as expected.
By luck i was able to connect these two enviroments via vlan since one of the offices and the hosting environment were using the same isp. So we got a 100mbit link between themcheap since the link did not need internet access.
The users in the office now directly connected to the hosted servers can now use thick clients for accessing the specialized software and this is what we wanted. The remaining offices should still go out via the internet using the rds gateway and not use the 8mbit vpn tunnels that connect the rest of the offices.
Because of trust that is set up to make this work, dns for the actual gateway and terminal servers are replicated in dns.
So even if i set the configuration to use gateway when sitting local, i have a feeling that everyone now connects to the rds gateway locally.
How can i check and verify this?
The "farm name" and "rds website" ip adresses have been edited in dns to external ip adresses, but as stated all the servers behind the gateways official ip are accessible in local dns.
