When you have multiple monitors, you sometimes have difficulty keeping the RDP window
to just one monitor. One solution is to modify the RDP settings.
Steps
-
Select IXIA CCMS Desktop from the landing page and enter
your credentials.
-
Download the .RDP file and store it in your preferred location.
For example, on your local desktop.
- Optional:
Rename the .RDP file into "IXIA CCMS Desktop".
-
Right-click the .RDP file and select Edit with
Notepad++.
- Add the following options at the beginning of the files:
- multimon:i: this option is used to define if you are using multiple screens
with your PC. It has to be set to
1 to use the options
below. Example: multimon:1
- selectedmonitors:s: this option is used to define the local screen where you
want to display the RDP window.
Example:
selectedmonitors:s:1 displays the RDP window on
screen #1. Note that the ID numbers of the screens might not match
the ID numbers displayed when you click Identify in the Windows
settings.
- screen mode id:i: this option is used to set how you want the RDP window to be
displayed when you start the connection.
Example: screen mode
id:i:2 means that the RDP window will show full screen.
Use the 1 value to show the RDP in a
window.
- Save the .RDP file.
- Double click the file to start the connection and test.
