Login to your Lab Client

Objective: Login to your Lab Client via RDP

Tasks

Recommended way: connect directly via remote desktop

1. Download the remote desktop configuration file or use the IP address to connect to your Lab client machine:
2. Ensure your computer as a Microsoft Remote Desktop application installed (Windows: Remote Desktop Connection is built-in, Mac: Install Microsoft Remote Desktop from Mac App Store).
3. Double Click on the SSEClient.rdp file that you downloaded or type in the IP address in the RDP application.
4. Use the Windows client credentials you collected in the “Collect Credentials” section to authenticate (usename should be pre-populated, just enter the password).
5. Give the machine a few moments to finish booting. Dismiss any windows or notifications (network connection, Teams login, etc.).

Keep this RDP session open, you’ll need it later!
