If your destination computer is serially connected to the console server , set the Destination as <port
label>:3389 e.g. if the Label you specified on the serial port on the console server is win2k3 , then specify the
remote host as win2k3:3389 . Alternative you can set the Destination as portXX:3389 where XX is the SDT
enabled serial port number e.g. if port 4 is on the console server is to carry the RDP traffic then specify
port04:3389

however when configuring the VNC port redirection specify port 5900 in the Destination IP address.
