Entry types events settings

Remote Desktop Manager gives you the flexibility to automatically run operations before or after establishing a connection.

These operations are defined via the Events section of a session's properties. Define a script or a command line which executes at the appropriate time with the provided parameters, such as the session ID or username. For example, events can be used to execute an external batch file or application that prompts the user for more information, or to update a log on a remote server.

The Events section is composed of four tabs. All of them can execute the same events. But at specific times, such as before the connection is established or after its interruption.

The Miscellaneous section of the Before Open tab allows to power on the remote device before trying to establish the connection.

Please note that for the Wake-on-LAN feature to work:

• The remote device must support the Wake-on-LAN feature.

• The MAC address must be filled out in the Information section of the session properties.
