Best Practices Analyzer for Remote Access

 

Applies To: Windows Server 2012 R2

In Windows management, best practices are guidelines that are considered the ideal way, under normal circumstances, to configure a server as defined by experts. While best practice violations, even critical ones, are not necessarily problematic, they indicate server configurations that can result in poor performance, poor reliability, unexpected conflicts, increased security risks, or other potential problems.

Topics in this section can help you bring Remote Access running on Windows ServerĀ® 2012 R2 into compliance with best practices. Content in this section is most valuable when you are preparing to run or have completed a Best Practices Analyzer scan of Remote Access, particularly when you want information about how to interpret and resolve scan results that identify areas of Remote Access that are noncompliant with best practices.
