Remote Access - How to connect remotely to your CoreImage Windows device


Introduction

Sometimes you may be using a computer that doesn't have access to all the resources a CoreImage Windows device does.  If you do not have physical access to one, HITS offers two methods to access a managed computing environment:  Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) and remotely connecting to a CoreImage Windows device (also known as RDP).

Windows Virtual Desktop is the recommended method for remote access to Michigan Medicine resources from non-HITS managed devices.

The VPN is not required to use WVD.

 

 

Instructions

Requirements to remotely connect to a CoreImage Windows device

 

  1. A CoreImage Windows device attached to the Michigan Medicine network. This is the "remote" computer.

  2. Your "local" computer connected to the Internet:

    1. Either a CoreImage Windows device or a CoreMac/IzzyMac device

    2. A personally owned computer

  3. Remote Access rights to the CoreImage Windows device.  Submit a request if you do not have those rights. Once the request is fulfilled and if the remote computer is a Classic-CoreImage, run Maintenance before attempting to remotely connect to it.  Note that Intune-CoreImage devices do not use Maintenance.
