HOTSPOT
Your company is installing the Remote Desktop Session Host (RD Session Host) role service on a
server that runs Windows Server 2008 R2. All client computers that connect to the RD Session Host
run Windows 7. Audio redirection, printer redirection, and clipboard redirection are enforced by a
Group Policy object (GPO). Users who connect to the RD Session Host over low-speed broadband
report poor performance. You need to configure the Remote Desktop Connection on the client
computers for optimal performance over a low-speed broadband connection. The display size and
color depth must not be altered. Which tab should you select to configure the appropriate setting?
To answer, select the appropriate setting or settings in the answer area.
Explanation:
Experience settings The settings that you’ll find on the Experience tab, shown in the Figure, allow
you to choose your connection speed and then choose to enable or disable certain graphical
enhancement settings that may take a heavy toll on bandwidth. There are four connection speed
settings on the drop down list and each setting has a corresponding default set of graphical
enhancement settings. However, you can pick and choose the settings you feel you need and your
bandwidth can support. Figure 5: When you choose a connection speed, you can choose a set of
graphical enhancement settings that are appropriate for your connection’s bandwidth. The Desktop
Background check box allows the remote system’s desktop wallpaper to appear on your remote
desktop. Desktop wallpaper will hog a lot of bandwidth and only makes sense for LAN connections.
When the Desktop Background check box is unchecked, Remote Desktop displays a blank desktop
using the default background color. The next two check boxes allow animation special effects
settings to be used during a remote session. If you have a high-speed connection, you can leave
these settings enabled. However, both of these settings will add unnecessary drag to your
connection, so you may want to turn them off to enhance performance even if you have a highspeed connection. If your office system is using Desktop Themes, you can opt to have them appear
in a Remote Desktop session. However, transmitting all the graphics associated with a Desktop
Theme will definitely add unnecessary drag to your connection, so you may want to turn it off. Now,
the last setting on the Experience tab, Bitmap Caching, allows a Remote Desktop session to cachecertain graphical screen elements to reduce the amount of data that must be transferred in order to
display the remote system’s screen on your client system. This will help with some of the graphical
enhancement settings mentioned above, but may not provide significant enough improvement to
warrant using the graphical enhancements in low to medium bandwidth situations.
