RDP 5.5
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) 5.5 replaces RDP 5.1 and provides
the following functionality:
■ Unicode compatibility, which enables you to send Unicode
values of characters as virtual key codes to the keyboard input.
■ RDP supports operation in any environment that allows network
localization, automatic disconnect, and remote configuration.
■ Variable bandwidth allocation through client-side bitmap caching
and optional compression for low-bandwidth connections,
significantly improving performance over low-bandwidth
connections.
■ Multichannel-capable protocol that permits separate virtual
channels for carrying presentation data, serial-device
communication, licensing information, and heavily encrypted
data.
■ Remote control which lets the support staff view and control a
Terminal Services session. Sharing input and display graphics
between two Terminal Services sessions lets support staff
diagnose and resolve problems remotely.
■ Network Load Balancing (NLB), available in Windows 2000
Advanced Server and Datacenter Server.
■ High color 8-bit, 16-bit, and 24-bit graphics are supported if they
are also supported in the graphics driver.
■ Clipboard sharing, also known as clipboard redirection. The local
clipboard becomes a part of the clipboard viewer chain in the
remote session, allowing the user to copy and paste between
applications running in both the remote session and on the local
client.
