Good to the point, I know as IT we think of the worst case scenario like RDP short path and QOS and not things like DNS and using LAN. Great video I got my AZ 140 in Nov I appreciate you and your work now going to be starting a job working with Cloud Solutions and compliance. I’m excited to the future and I will be always checking your videos to make sure I’m up to date on AVD
DNS proxy / forwarding is really great in the Azure firewall, you should all check it out. Never had to adjust a setting in the AVD, happens automatically with the Standard sku of the firewall.
@@AzureAcademy my bad it does not depend on the VM size even the OS. I tested with latest VM 10 image and it works :) Looks like UDP protocol is available with all AVD env witthout any conf ;)
Last update Dean, Microsoft Learn says that RDP is still technically limited even we modify the frame rate interval, are you agree about this ? Thank you
Still limited in what way? Removing the frame rate cap doesn’t mean you have infinite FPS because there are multiple factors in remote sessions that determine the FPS.
@@AzureAcademy Dunno :D Microsoft learn say For example, Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) limits the frame rate to 30 FPS. Please contact the remote display protocol providers for more information. ^^
@@AzureAcademy True, the 30 FPS limit can be removed and it worked. But I try to know if RDP features restricts "at the end" to 30 FPS. I tried to launch 2 AVD, with and without, and I did not clearly identify any better experience from user PoV. But maybe I am wrong !
I have a question aside my comment, are there more efficient methods of connecting to our VMs over VNC with a third party client you would recommend? I had considered a client like nomachine VNC, which is a little more lightweight in comparison to RDP. I feel like you can get speedup if you just use a different protocol, as RDP is quite heavyweight, and other VNC protocols deliver things like compression, USB device forwarding, etc.
@Azure Academy @Azure Academy oh yeah. I think i definitely should have indicated my use case. my apologies. We are deploying video editing software and game engine editors. We had to switch from windows 365 obviously because GPU support doesn't come with. Though I do plan to intune enroll them, we needed some special solutions. I ended up settling on parsec because it has an RDP compatibility layer which is vital to keeping ADDS compliant (we are all in cloud. Parsec offers h265 video encoding and low latency, so we are absolutely using RDP short path and each of my developers has a vm configured near them in the region matching closest (that we could find NV instances) Availability zones and CDN are also quite big to optimize this. .
Have you looked into the Microsoft development VMs, prebuilt with all the dev tools…and you can then add them to your AVD host pools…or just access them directly with PARSEC
@Azure Academy you mean dev center? I think I saw this in the resource listing in preview. I'll take a look. Though I have to stray away the best I can from preview as terraform hasn't quite caught up with some of those resources. Dev center being one. I can automate preview resources with azurerm deployments but is a lot of manual work. I'm keeping everything managed with terraform. I think once dev center is out of preview it will be a lot easier to use dev center over having to kick off a azurerm_deployment_template with a custom arm template each go. I had overlooked it as its not in terraform....yet. thanks to being in preview. Resources that do not have support for my automation tooling have to have custom modules made for them usually.
@Azure Academy also side note hope to see you at Microosft Build. They are doing a lot of training seminars this year. I got in last week for the azure sessions.
Great Video! - cant wait to implement this!
Awesome, thanks…let me know how it goes ☺️

Congratulations on passing the AZ-140!!!
👍🎉🎁🙌🎈👏🏆👍
Thanks for watching, and letting me know☺️

Thanks I’ll check it out
Thank you Dean !
ll test it soon and compare it without
Sounds good!
@@AzureAcademy Did you see that the latest W11 image automatically activates UDP protocol for public networks if the VM is having more than 2 cores ?
I haven’t seen that one…will have to take a look, thanks!
@@AzureAcademy my bad it does not depend on the VM size even the OS. I tested with latest VM 10 image and it works :) Looks like UDP protocol is available with all AVD env witthout any conf ;)
That is so cool!
Why is UDP Short Path exclusive for AVD? Or am i missing something?
Because RDP is a tcp protocol service. Azure Virtual Desktop can use tcp but can also use UDP over RDP ShortPath…totally different tech at play here

There is more to the user experience then just FPS but with out a good FPS nothing else matters

I like tightVNC. Dameware is also great. But this video was focused on native tools ☺️
