Configuring Windows Devices — Question 3

You administer Windows 10 Enterprise computers in your company network. All computers are members of an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain.
A server named Server1 runs Windows Server 2012 R2 and has an IP address of 10.10.10.20. Server1 is configured to use port 10987 for Remote Desktop connections.
From your Windows 10 Enterprise computer, you need to create a Remote Desktop connection to Server1.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Run mstsc.exe /v:10.10.10.20:10987.
• B. Run mstsc.exe /v:10.10.10.20 /p:10987.
• C. From the General tab of your Remote Desktop connection, enter 10.10.10.20 port:10987.
• D. From the Advanced tab of your Remote Desktop connection, configure the port of Server1 in the server authentication field. A

Correct answer:

Explanation

The correct answer is A because it properly specifies the IP address and the port number for the Remote Desktop connection using the correct syntax. Option B is incorrect as it uses the wrong flag for specifying the port. Options C and D also do not follow the correct method for inputting the port number in the Remote Desktop client.
