Azure AVD RDP connection session disconnecting
Hi all, We are having issues with the RDP connectioin to AVD disconnecting after a short period of time around 10 minutes if no activity. This is very frustrating so was hoping there is a way of...
Hi Dave,
A couple of weeks ago I had an MS Teams screen sharing session with Azure support. Our disconnection issues were related to the Azure Virtual Desktop Client that was trying to connect over UDP, instead over TCP. By default, the client assumes that RDP shortpath is enabled. Some customers report issues and others not, possibly related to the firewallbrand.
As a workaround, TCP connections can be enforced on the client-side via GPO.
Browse to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Connection Client. Open the policy setting Turn Off UDP On Client and set it to Enabled.
- Thanks. I do appreciate the feedback.
Dave
