Hi there!
I'm a senior developer with over 7 years of experience working with AWS and Windows Server environments. I’ve had my share of setting up instances and configuring them for smooth RDP access, so I'm pretty confident I can help you out here.
Firstly, I understand that you need your Windows Server 2012 instance on AWS configured for remote desktop access. This is a straightforward process, and I've done similar configurations many times. For example, in my previous project, I set up a Windows Server for a client that allowed their remote team to access crucial applications. I configured security groups, adjusted RDP settings, and ensured the proper network configurations were in place, which led to seamless access and increased productivity.
For your task, I’ll ensure the RDP functionality is enabled, configure the firewall settings, and verify that your security group allows RDP connections from your local machine's IP. I’ll also provide a short document explaining each step I took along the way, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the process.
Looking forward to getting this set up for you quickly and efficiently!
Best,
