1) Open
Routing and Remote Access in Administrative Tools |
 |
 |
2) Right click on the server
name and choose Configure and Enable
Routing and Remote Access. |
 |
 |
3) The first screen you will
see is a welcome message and an introduction to the setup
wizard. |
 |
 |
4) On the next page you will
have many choices for configuring Routing and Remote Access.
Be sure and choose Virtual private
network (VPN) server. |
 |
 |
5) This page list the network
protocols installed on your computer and that will be used
with your VPN. I only use TCP/IP. If you need additional
protocols like NetBEUI or IPX/SPX you can install them here. |
 |
 |
6) Now the wizard wants to know
what interface you want to use for your Internet Connection.
If you only have one network card like me, choose
<No Internet connection>. With
two network cards you can specify which interface that will
accept VPN connections and your server act as a firewall.
Choosing no Internet connection doesn't mean no one can
connect to your server. |
 |
 |
7) If you have DHCP setup on
your server, you can use it to automatically assign IP's for
VPN clients. Although you can specify a range of IP
addresses for clients, I recommend that you use DHCP. This
way, you save a lot of headache setting up the client side.
DHCP will assign DNS, WINS and other useful information for
getting around your local area network. |
 |
 |
8) After you hit next you will
get a warning telling you to make sure DHCP is configured
properly. |
 |
 |
9) If you want to use and setup
a RADIUS server, you can do it here, but local users will
work just fine. |
 |
 |
10) Now click
FINISH and Routing and Remote
Access will restart. |
 |
 |
11) Now Routing and Remote
Access will have a green arrow next to the server name. |
