NimbostratusF5 Bigip as RDG Gateway, Windows 2016 Server
Hello,
i would like to youse my F5 Bigip 12.1.3 to act as a RDG Gateway. i used the iApp version for this scenario.
I have created successfully a NTML machine account in a Windows Server 2016 active Directory. When i connect via Remote Destopk i get invalid TS gateway credential.
I i use an NTML machine account in a Windows Active Dirextory 2012, the setop works as expected.
Is there any issue known between F5 acts as an RDP gatway and Windows Server/Active Directory 2016?
Best regards Heiko
It seems that Microsoft Server 2016 isn't supported yet. See section 'Remote Desktop Gateway Compatibility Matrix':
However, I found this post. Seems like a registry change under Microsoft Windows Server 2016 could solve the problem.

We found out that we need to change a registry key on any windows 10 or windows server 2016 Navigate to this Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp Change “SecurityLayer” to a zero It seem that the F5 Big-Ip act as a really old rdp client and it's blocked by Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 even if on the GUI it's allowing connection from an older RDP client.
