Connection Examples

Hostname  Win10Server 
IPv4 address 192.168.200.100

Portnumber RDP  12345 
Portnumber SSL  23456 

 

Windows Firewall on the Win10Server

Hosts file on the Win7 Client PC

For these examples, the hosts file is used on the Client PC such that the servername Win10Server can be resolved by the Client PC. Usually resolving DNS names is not done by editing the hosts file on each Client PC, but is done otherwise.

Note: When DNS is used to connect to a Server, it might happen that the selection for IPv4 or IPv6 in the Client is "over-ruled" by the response of the DNS Server. For example, If the DNS Server "only" replies with an IPv4 address for the Server, then the Client might attempt to connect using IPv4, and ignore the setting for IPv6.
