Hi Josh, you are correct about scenario 1. RD Gateway servers are optional, but if you are using them and HA for Connection Broker, and have configured your RDCB HA FQDN to point to the RDCB virtual server, LTM will load balance those connections.

 

When users connect directly to the Session Host servers, those servers connect directly to the Connection Broker for a session token. LTM will honor the session token when persisting connections. The HA configuration for Connection Broker never comes into play in this scenario.
