Hi @SajilMeledath-2913 ,

From what I understand you have a physical peripheral and your developing software for it on an Azure VM. What I would do is plug the physical dongle into your on premises machine and then RDP into your dev VM on Azure. Using RDP you can give your remote session access to your local peripherals. I've tested this with my USB Hub and a standard Azure VM. It works great. See a screenshot I took below:

Your not able to see the dongle on your VM when you pass the peripheral through? If you look at the device manager on the remote machine, do you see it? Expand the "Other Supported Devices" option and ensure your dongle shows up there.

Hi @SajilMeledath-2913 ,

If its not under ports or drives (make sure to expand the options) you should check the VM's Remote Desktop Policies and ensure USB Redirection is enabled. You can do that with:

Group Policies > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services


'Connection Client' for the Local machine
'Remote Desktop Session Host' for the VM

Make sure you enable USB Redirection on both the local machine and the remote VM. You may have to restart the VM after changing these policies for it to take affect.

Does this solution also work for a Bastion remote connection?
