With version 11.6.0, APM can act as native RDP gateway, so no custom components needed other than native RDP client and pointing it to the APM Virtual Server as the RDP Gateway. Check out the documentation here: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/apm-application-access-11-6-0/5.html
