Secure Remote Desktop Control
This chapter describes how to configure the ZyXEL Device to allow remote users to manage
LAN computers.
24.1 Desktop Links Overview
The ZyXEL Device’s desktop link policies allow remote users to use remote desktop
connections to securely manage LAN computers. The remote user can control and work on the
LAN computer as if he was actually there. He can install (or remove) software, run programs,
change settings, open, copy, create, and delete files.

This remote management can be used for
troubleshooting, support, and administration, and also for remote access to files and programs.
Since several users can simultaneously connect to the same computer, it is also perfect for
education and team-based work.
The LAN computer to be managed and the remote user’s computer must both have VNC
(Virtual Network Computing) or RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) software installed. The
server software must be on the LAN computer to be managed and the client software must be
on the remote user’s computer.
In the following figure, user A uses his user account to log into the ZyXEL Device. Then he
uses the Real VNC client on his computer to manage LAN computer B. The connection
between the remote user and the ZyXEL Device is secured by an SSL tunnel.
