Question: How to connect RDP through Sangfor 运维安全管理系统 (Sangfor OSM / 堡垒机)? EasyConnect exists, but Remote Desktop connection fails.

Answer:

In a Sangfor 运维安全管理系统 (operation security management / bastion host), the architecture is usually:

Your PC
  |
  | HTTPS
  |
EasyConnect (SSL VPN)
  |
  |
Sangfor 运维安全管理系统
  |
  | RDP protocol
  |
Windows Server / PC

EasyConnect only creates the VPN tunnel. It does not directly provide RDP. After VPN is connected, you still need to access the bastion system and launch an RDP session.

Correct workflow

1. Start EasyConnect

Example:

EasyConnect
    |
    v
https://vpn.company.com
    |
Login
    |
Connected

Check that the VPN adapter appears:

Windows:

Win + R
ncpa.cpl

You should see something like:

Sangfor SSL VPN Adapter

or a virtual network adapter.

2. Open Sangfor 运维安全管理系统 Web portal

After EasyConnect connects, open:

https://<堡垒机地址>

or sometimes:

https://<vpn-address>:443

Login:

username
password
OTP / SMS token

3. Find the asset

Usually:

资产管理
    |
    └── Windows Server
            |
            └── RDP

or:

我的资源
    |
    └── Remote Desktop

Click:

Connect

The bastion system will create the RDP session.

If RDP fails

There are several layers.

Case 1: EasyConnect connected, but asset list empty

Meaning:

VPN OK
堡垒机 authentication OK
Asset permission missing

Need admin to grant:

User
 |
Resource permission
 |
Windows server
 |
RDP permission

Case 2: RDP timeout

Example:

Connection timeout
Unable to connect

Check:

From your machine:

Test-NetConnection <target-ip> -Port 3389

Expected:

TcpTestSucceeded : True

If false:

Case 3: RDP login failed

Example:

The logon attempt failed

Usually:

Wrong:

username
password
domain

Common format:

DOMAIN\username

or:

server\administrator

Case 4: Browser RDP plugin fails

Sangfor often uses:

Try:

Chrome / Edge

Allow popups:

Settings
 → Site permissions
 → Pop-ups
 → Allow

If it downloads:

.rdp

file, open with:

mstsc.exe

Check EasyConnect status

Run:

ipconfig

You should see a VPN IP.

Example:

Ethernet adapter Sangfor VPN:

IPv4 Address . . . : 10.x.x.x

If no VPN IP:

EasyConnect connected

but tunnel is not established.

Important: Windows 11 + EasyConnect

Your previous EasyConnect version note says:

M7.1之前不支持 Win11

meaning:

So confirm:

EasyConnect version >= 7.1

For exact debugging, the important information is:

  1. EasyConnect status:
Connected / Failed?
  1. After VPN login, can you open:
https://堡垒机地址
  1. What error appears when clicking RDP:
timeout?
login failed?
blank page?
plugin error?
  1. Are you using:
Web RDP

or downloaded:

.rdp file + mstsc

The failure point tells whether it is VPN, 堡垒机 permission, or Windows RDP.
