Quản lý nhiều kết nối từ xa

Trình quản lý kết nối máy tính từ xa [RDCMan] là một công cụ mạng cho phép người dùng quản lý nhiều máy tính để bàn từ xa . Nó là một ứng dụng toàn diện và thiết thực, rất cần thiết khi bạn cần quản lý và tổ chức nhiều kết nối. Với sự giúp đỡ của nó, bạn có thể hợp nhất các kết nối từ xa của mình thành một cửa sổ trực quan và duy nhất để bạn có thể ngăn chặn sự lộn xộn trên máy tính để bàn của mình. Quan trọng hơn, ứng dụng này cho phép bạn tổ chức tất cả các phòng thí nghiệm máy chủ . Nó lưu tất cả các chi tiết kết nối trong cửa sổ chính của nó mỗi khi bạn cần kết nối từ xa với một máy tính cụ thể. Khi bạn đã tạo và gán tên cá nhân cho một nhóm, bạn có thể thêm bao nhiêu máy chủ nếu cần. Mặc dù có rất nhiều ứng dụng tương tự ngoài kia, điều làm nên sự khác biệt của Remote Desktop Connection Manager là nó có thể tạo nhiều nhómphiên trong một giao diện duy nhất. Tuy nhiên, ứng dụng đã hỗ trợ hạn chế để quản lý các phiên từ xa ngoài các phiên được kết nối từ nó.

What Is a Remote Desktop Connection Manager?

A remote desktop connection manager is used to manage remote desktop administration for the different connections and sessions you have. Typical enterprises have multiple Remote Desktop Protocol [RDP] sessions per day and managing these manually means having to repeatedly enter your credentials. Logging in and keeping track of these sessions can become tiresome even without having to make SSH or Telnet connections for troubleshooting.

A remote desktop connection manager or RDP client consolidates your connections in one place, so you don’t have to log in to numerous remote connection sessions per day.

Best Remote Desktop Connection Managers

There are several good remote desktop connection managers available today. Here are my top five.

1. SolarWinds Dameware Remote Support

Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Manager [RDCMan] is useful for establishing regular remote connections. Like other tools, it can save login credentials, so you don’t need to enter your credentials every time you want to create a remote connection.

RDCMan also supports connections between virtual machines and consoles, allows you to establish smart groups, and gives you the ability to import servers from a text file. This tool is useful for supporting RDP connections, but it cannot support other protocols for a broader range of remote connections. It’s essentially an RDP client, and other tools are much broader in terms of their protocol offerings.

You can download RDCMan for free through the Microsoft website.

4. Devolutions Remote Desktop Manager

With this remote desktop manager, you can automatically launch and consolidate connections in one centralized window. You can also save your login credentials with “one-click” connections, making it easier to manage multiple remote sessions.

Devolutions Remote Desktop Manager makes it possible to share your remote sessions with your team members and manage and control other users’ access to accounts. With secure password vaults and two-factor authentication, this tool takes a secure approach to remote desktop connection management.

A free trial of the Enterprise Edition is available.

5. mRemoteNG

mRemoteNG is an open-source software designed to serve as a centralized tool for managing remote connections. It allows you to see your remote connections in an interface relying on a tabbing system, and it supports several protocols for establishing remote connections, including RDP, VNC, ICA, SSH, Telnet, HTTP/HTTPS, rlogin, and raw socket connections.

This free tool is light on features. As such, it’s best suited for home users and IT staff in a small business without the budget for a professional tool.
