Hi spacegabx
According to this document, the configuration is not supported
However, the article mentions a Servicing Stack Update that allows this configuration.

I hope Mark's suggestion below helps. However, please do not expose your RDP server over the internet unsecured. Please see this FBI article about increasing attacks against exposed RDP ports: https://www.ic3.gov/media/2018/180927.aspx
If you must access RDP over the Internet, please use a VPN solution - avoid those flagged by CISA such as Pulse VPN. Using NAT or changing RDP port will not help due to Bluekeep vulnerabilities. If you find VPN too complicated, you should consider solutions similar to TruGrid SecureRDP.
Best.

Hello KPA,
Thank you for this. I'm also aware and our organization is using a secured and trusted VPN. but we still keep on monitoring every day for possible attacks through RDP. I'll look at the link you provided to gain more awareness of this.
