Yes, from "SERVER" you can connect via RDP to both your personal desktop and other servers.

You haven’t configured Windows Server as a router before, so you’re likely unsure about the steps. When you used the wizard, did you select “LAN routing”? You probably want to enable NAT for proper communication between networks.

The main server connects with both other systems, and each system can communicate back to the server. The only issue is with server 2 to PC connection. Yes, I selected that setup. What’s unclear is the routing configuration. If you revisit the first SS diagram I provided, the static routes were set in reverse. That’s what I initially tried. As illustrated below, port 2 uses IP "10.10.2.1" and port 1 uses IP "10.10.1.1". The key point is how packets from 10.10.1.2 are directed to 10.10.2.2 — something I’m not sure about. I think RRAS should handle that.

It's really clear you don't require static routes on the "SERVER" since IP addresses for the NICs automatically created the necessary /24 routes. Proceed and remove them. On your client PC's secondary NIC (10.10.2.2), the gateway should point to 10.10.2.1; add a static route accordingly. The opposite applies on the server side: add a route for 10.10.2.0/24 using 10.10.1.1. Also, turn off the Windows firewall on all three devices to avoid any issues.
