Specify a TS Gateway Server to Manage

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

After you install the TS Gateway role service and open TS Gateway Manager on that server, by default, TS Gateway Manager will display the details for that server.

If you plan to manage a remote TS Gateway server, membership in the Administrators group, or equivalent, on the TS Gateway server that you plan to manage remotely, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Specifically, you must log on to the local computer with a domain account that is a member of the Administrators group or equivalent, on the TS Gateway server that you plan to manage remotely. Alternatively, you can open TS Gateway Manager while logged on under such an account. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at Local and Domain Default Groups (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477).

To manage a TS Gateway server

  1. Open TS Gateway Manager.

  2. In the console tree, right-click TS Gateway Manager, and then click Connect to TS Gateway Server.

  3. In the Add a TS Gateway Server to Manage dialog box, specify whether to connect to a local server or to a remote server by doing either of the following:

    • To connect to a local TS Gateway server, click Local Server (the server that this snap-in console is running on).

    • To connect to a remote TS Gateway server, enter the name of the TS Gateway server that you want to connect to in the Remote server box. Alternatively, click Browse to select the TS Gateway server, and in the Select Computer dialog box, specify the domain in which the server is located, specify all or part of the server name, and then click OK to close the Select Computer dialog box.

  4. Click OK.
