Parallels RAS Management Portal is a modern web-based configuration and administration console designed for Parallels RAS administrators using a desktop or a mobile device to carry out configurations and day-to-day activities. To use RAS Management Portal in a RAS Farm, you need to install the RAS Web Administration Service component. You can install this component on the machine with a Connection Broker or on a dedicated machine.
In this scenario, all components, including RAS Web Administration Service, are installed on a single RD Session Host. This configuration is only recommended for proof-of-concept and small environments.
The components on the primary RAS Connection Broker are installed using the Parallels RAS installer (standard installation).
For larger environments with multiple administrative activities, it is recommended to use a dedicated server for hosting RAS Web Administration Service in order to decrease load on the Connection Broker.
The components on the primary RAS Connection Broker are installed using the Parallels RAS installer (standard installation).
RAS Web Administration Service is installed using Windows Installer (custom installation).
