How do users connect through an RD Gateway?

Hello all,

I've just started reading up on RDS services since Windows Server 2012.

I've already found a lot of documentation on how to setup the different components, but from the user side it is still unclear how an enduser should connect to in internal server through an RD Gateway?

I've got a test setup with 1 RD Gateway in the DMZ and 1 connection broker and 1 RD Session host in the internal LAN.

What should a user do from his homemachine?

I've read that connections are initiated over 443 from the homecomputer towards the RD Gateway.

Should he surf to a specific website then? Or should he open his RDP client and add the external address of the RD Gateway under the "advanced > Connect from anywhere section" settings of the RDP client?
Does this setting trigger the RDP client to connect over port 443 towards the RDP client?

If the enduser has to connect using his RDP client and has set the RD Gateway in the 'Connect from anywhere' setting, which hostname should he then enter to connect to? My session host IP address nor hostname is known from the outside..

Many thanks for clarifying this to me!

Filip
