Hi!
I have a basic understanding of what Network Level Authentication is, thanks to the internet. We have a LAN setup with some Windows 10 Enterprise systems and want to connect via Remote Desktop to some of these machines (on the same network).
Network Level Authentication seems like a good idea. It should prevent people on another network from connecting.
We're connected the AzureAD, but no on premises domain controller. Would we need some sort of domain controller to successfully use NLA or is there some other method to authenticate on the network that I don't know?
This is the error message we receive when attempting to connect from one Windows 10 Enterprise machine to another:
That pretty much says we need to be connecting to a domain, but isn't AzureAD an off-site domain controller? We authenticate against AzureAD. If we change a user password in the Admin portal, our password on the client machines are updated....
So to summarize, we are attempting to use AzureAD to authenticate for RDP sessions. Is that currently possible or no?
Thanks!

Code:
The remote computer that you are trying to connect to requires network level authentication (NLA), but your windows domain controller cannot be contacted to perform NLA. If you are an administrator on the remote computer, you can disable NLA by using the options on the remote tab of the System properties dialog box.
So to summarize, we are attempting to use AzureAD to authenticate for RDP sessions. Is that currently possible or no?
Thanks!
