Workspaces RDP connection failure

Question

I've signed up for the first time to AWS a few days ago. I have no knowledge regarding AWS.

I've tried to connect to the Workspaces via the AWS free tier using this article -
https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/connect-workspace-rdp/

It seems I've done everything well according to the article 1-7 steps, but I failed to understand how to configure according to the 8th step (the last one).

The problem is that I fail to figure out which public IP should I set, and with which user should I sign in with via the RDP

Iv'e tried to connect to the Workspaces Desktop via different RDP softwares, but all seemed to fail

What should I do? How do I connect successfully via the RDP?

Answer

You should connect using the Amazon WorkSpaces Client software, not RDP. The public endpoint for streaming is not for RDP protocol, so that is not a possible way to connect. You can connect via RDP if you create a connection to the VPC (ala VPN) and the private IP.
