Remote Desktop allows the graphical interface of a remote Windows system to be displayed on over a network onto a local system. In addition, keyboard and mouse events on the local system are transmitted to the remote system enabling the local user to perform tasks on the remote system as if they were physically sitting at the remote system. Conversely, resources (such as printers and disk drives) on the local system can be made available to the remote system for the duration of the connection. This remote control can be established in a number of ways, including over wide area networks (WAN), local area networks (LAN) or over the internet.

This particular screen also provides the option to have the connection automatically re-established in the event that a session is dropped.
