Where do I get the RDP file to complement RDP bookmarks or shortcuts?

Description

Both SMA 100 and SMA 1000 systems support the import of the RDP file or 'RDP options' to set options on an RDP bookmark or short cut.  

They mention importing the RDP file or RDP Options but do not provide information for where that file is located in the user computer. 






Resolution

The RDP file will be named either Default.RDP or as named when it was saved.  It will have a .RDP extension.

The Default.RDP file is a hidden file in the user's home Documents directory. 

C:\Users\<user-name>\Documents\Default.RDP

If other RDP connections are saved they will not be hidden files, but they are saved in the same folder.  


RDP files are text files and can be opened in any text editor. To integrate RDP options into an SMA 100 series bookmark, capture the text and paste it into the field on the bookmark.

On SMA 1000 import the *.RDP file to incorporate those options into a shortcut.
