Terminal server

Question

Hi all
I am not much aware of terminal server.
I have a server lets say server01. I logged into the Remote Desktop Licensing Manager.
I can see i have license in the below format.

I have a server lets say server02 and i want to make it as jumpserver i.e more than 20 to 30 users will login to this server simultaneously at a time.
What components should i install on server02 and how can i assign the license on this server server02 i.e server01 is my RDS license.

Hello RogerRoger,

Thank you for your question and reaching out.

I can understand you are having some quires related to RDS roles and Licensing.

1. You can use single Remote Desktop Licensing Manager in your AD environment in your case its Server01.
2. If you have Server02 as Jumpbox server then you can install Remote Desktop Session Host role on it and configure Server01 as Licensing server so that 20 to 30 users can take RDP and get license.

Please correct me if this is the correct procedure

On Server02-->under Remote Desktop Users Group-i have added an Active group and only those users can login to this server.

On Server02-->i need to just install Remote Desktop Session Host Role

On Server02--> i just need to execute the below commands

$obj = gwmi -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting
$obj.ChangeMode("<4>")
$obj.SetSpecifiedLicenseServerList("<server01.mydomain.com>")
$obj.GetSpecifiedLicenseServerList()
