Changing default RDS Web Access port

Question

Hi, is it possible to change default RDS Web Access port from 443 to lets say 444 since I want to use port 443 for other application and network team has already allowed all VLANs to access port 443 (primary reason to occupy 443 by other application). If so what is procedure? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

If you have RD Gateway server on your RDS deployment, you can change the port using RD Gateway Manager.

Open RD Gateway Manager (Server Manager>Tools>Remote Desktop Services>Remote Desktop Gateway Manager):

1. Right-click the Remote Desktop Gateway server name and select Properties.
2. Select the Transport Settings tab.
3. Modify the HTTPS port number and click OK.
   

You can also use PowerShell Command to change the port. On your RDCB server, run below PowerShell Commands:

Import-Module RemoteDesktop

Set-RDSessionCollectionConfiguration -CollectionName “MySessionCollection” -CustomRdpProperty “gatewayhostname:s:my.gateway.server:4343”

You should chnage the Italic part based on your own environment.

If you have no RD gateway, please try using IIS Manager to change the port.

On the RD Web Server open IIS Manager (Server Manager>Tools>IIS Manager):

1. Click the RD Web server name to see “Sites" folder and expand "Sites".
2. Click Default Web Site and click "Bindings" on the right pane
   
3. Click https and edit the port.
   

Thanks,
