Can you tell me please which kind of parameters can the user change?

F5 support answer:

 

"The only thing the APM checks when the RDP connection request comes back in are the APM session cookie, and the gateway access token.

We cannot check and enforce other RDP parameters, because if the APM session cookie and the RDP gateway access token is valid then APM establish a websocket between the RDP client and Terminal Server. At that stage it depends on the Terminal server to enforce the RDP settings."
