Don't Use EasyConnect IP in RDP | Generated by AI

Question: How to set EasyConnect VPN address in Windows Remote Desktop Connection (mstsc)?

Answer:

You do not put the EasyConnect virtual IP into Remote Desktop Connection.

In mstsc.exe:

Computer:
<target Windows server IP or hostname>

Example:

Computer: 10.20.30.40

or:

Computer: server01.company.local

Then click:

Connect

The EasyConnect virtual IP is only used by the VPN adapter automatically. You do not configure it in RDP.

The flow is:

EasyConnect connected
        |
        v
Windows routing table knows:
10.20.0.0/16 -> VPN tunnel
        |
        v
mstsc.exe
Computer: 10.20.30.40
        |
        v
RDP through VPN

If you only have the EasyConnect virtual IP, for example:

10.100.1.25

that is your VPN client address. It cannot be used for RDP unless the machine at 10.100.1.25 itself is an RDP server.

To test:

ipconfig

Find:

Sangfor SSL VPN Adapter
IPv4 Address: 10.x.x.x

Ignore that.

Use the remote asset/server IP provided by the Sangfor 运维安全管理系统.
