What is Azure?
Azure is a cloud computing platform and service created by Microsoft for building, deploying, and managing applications and services through a global network of Microsoft-managed data centers. It provides a variety of services, including virtual machines, storage, and databases, as well as tools for deploying and managing applications, such as Azure Active Directory and Azure DevOps. Azure also supports a wide range of programming languages, frameworks, and tools, making it a popular choice for developers.
What are the steps to create a remote connection role in Azure?
Log in to the Azure portal (portal.azure.com) using your Azure account credentials.
In the left-hand menu, select “Virtual Machines.”
Select the virtual machine for which you want to create the remote connection.
Select “Connect” from the top menu.
Select “Enable Remote Desktop” in the “Connect” menu.
Select “Add user” and enter the name of the user who you want to give remote access to.
Select “OK” to create the user and add them to the Remote Desktop Users group.
Download the RDP file by clicking on the “Download RDP” button.
Use the RDP file to connect to the virtual machine using the Remote Desktop Connection client on your local machine.
Enter the username and password for the user you added in step 6 to log in to the virtual machine.
If you want to add multiple users, repeat steps 6-8 for each additional user.
Note: To avoid security issues, it is recommended to use Azure Active Directory Authentication for RDP connection and use network security group(NSG) and Azure firewall to limit the IP range that can access the RDP port.
