Hi all,

Is there a way to block RDP traffic from everywhere apart from the UK?

I'm guessing probably not, but interested to know because numerous countries seem to be trying to log into a terminal server here repeatedly and we would like to stop this.

Thanks,

Yes, it's possible. Depends on your kit whether you can/how difficult it will be.

Why is Terminal Servicing exposed to the open internet though? No VPN available?
 
How many need remote access? rather than blocking specifically non-uk IPs, it could be easier to allow just the IPs that need access and block everything else. Of course this all depends on your setup and the requirements of the people connecting in.
 
They have a watchguard firewall with SSL VPN setup, but not many people use it.

They only have 75 licenses for it on their device which is not enough anyway so most people log in directly to the TS.

They have people who log in from branch offices and then several people who may log in from anywhere as they are field based.

Locking down by specific office IP's would be preferable, but not possible in this instance.

The Watchguard is an XTM510.
