az network bastion rdp --name "<name>" --resource-group "<RGName>" --target-resource-id "<ID>" --configure
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

My issue is that the rdp connection always revert the display settings to use all the available monitors and the max resolution.
The new --configure allow to customize this settings, but we cannot save this settings for future use (the .rdp seems to be recreated with defaullt value each time the command is run)
Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to be able to save the display settings in the .rdp and this settings not overwritten on future run
Describe alternatives you've considered

I've tried to edit the .rdp settings, but the file is recreated each time I run the command

Maybe a straightforward way to overcome this would be to copy the settings from the default.rdp found in the user's document folder?

Maybe it should cache the generated rdp file and name it after the machine we connected to, and then look for and re-use it if it exists. I'd be quite happy if the dialog still opened but was populated with the settings I keep having to set each time I connect.

Either let me specify a local "override" file or at least add options to set display settings and username (I'm sure others will want other stuff but this is what I care about).

My use case is that I have a PowerShell script on my desktop that makes sure the VM is started before connecting, I always connect as the same user and never want the default display settings. Working with my laptop and one or two external monitors, it would be ideal to have scripts that open the VM on one or two of the monitors (I want one for the local computer). I know the "old" rdp-file is clunky to configure but I can work with that. As is I only have "all or one" to choose from when using Bastion.

@Softper I used a ugly hack : start the bastion connection then kill mstsc.exe, find the .rdp file and remove the option to use multi monitor:

#find the rdp file generated by bastion
$rdppath=ls $env:temp *.rdp |sort lastwritetime -desc|select -first 1 |select -expand fullname

$rdp=Get-Content $rdppath
$rdp -replace "use multimon:i:1","" >> "BastionOneMonitor.rdp"

#invoke the correct rdp file
mstsc.exe "BastionOneMonitor.rdp"
