In addition to having SDDC running version 1.13, you will also need either version VMRC 11.2 or 12.0. This is great if you want to use VMRC over the internet or by going through VPN when using a Direct Connect or the new VMware Transit Connect Gateway (vTGW). Here is a quick screenshot of the new VMRC vCenter Proxy feature in action, simply click on Launch Remote Console and it will now just connect to the VM. I was pleasantly surprise when I saw this feature in the latest SDDC release as I know this is something customers have asked about in the past. Funny enough, I had just re-deployed my SDDC a few days ago and figured I would take this new feature for a spin. Obviously, this is not ideal for a number of reasons and with this new feature, it simplifies console access similar to that of the HTML5 console but also improves security by reducing number of clients that actually need to communicate directly with an ESXi host, which is usually running on an isolated management network. Unlike the HTML5 console, which just requires vCenter Server access, VMRC require clients to also have direct connectivity access to the ESXi hosts.

For basic functionality, the HTML5 console is generally preferred but for cases where you might need to mount a local device from your computer such as a USB, bluetooth or CD-ROM device, you had to use the VMRC client. You can either use the HTML5 Remote Console within your browser or you could use the standalone VMware Remote Console (VMRC) application. Historically, when you wanted to interact with a Virtual Machine using the vSphere UI in vCenter Server, you had two options. This simplifies connectivity requirements, and allows for the use of VMRC over VPN when a DX or vTGW is also being used with the SDDC. VMware Remote Console connections will now be proxied through the SDDC’s vCenter, and clients no longer require connectivity to ESXi hosts.VMware Remote Console (VMRC) vCenter Proxy VMware Cloud on AWS (VMConAWS) 1.13 was just released and although it is an optional release, it does introduce a pretty interesting capability that I think our customers will really appreciate and benefit from, especially when this capability also makes its way into an on-premises vSphere release.
