You can use just about anything you want here since this just helps to keep track of what's what on your client machine. A name is useful if you have more than one VPN connection to manage. The next step of the wizard asks you to decide which users should be able to use this new connection.
Do you want it available for just the use of the currently logged in user, or should it be available for any user? Keep in mind that, even if a connection is available to a logged in user that you don't want connected to the VPN, user must still provide valid credentials to actually attach to the VPN services.
For this example, I've enabled the VPN connection for my use only. Finally, you're finished creating the initial connection, as evidenced by a screen that looks like the one shown in Figure F. Click Finish. The Network Connection Wizard just creates the initial connection with common parameters. Now that it's created, you need to make modifications based on your environment.
In particular, I've often run into trouble with Network Connection Wizard-created VPN connections' default gateway setting—more on that in a bit.
As soon as you're done with the Network Connection Wizard, the new connection pops up so that you can connect to the remote VPN server. The example, shown below in Figure G , contains the username and password, which I provided. Before you hit the Connect button, take a little time to adjust the client settings.
To do so, click the Properties button. I will go through most of the screens, and provide explanation where I recommend that you change the default settings. There isn't much to change here, except if you need to change the name or IP address of the server to which you will connect. You can also configure this connection to dial a different connection before attempting to connect to the VPN. This is useful for clients that need to establish a dial-up connection before connecting to the VPN as it reduces the number of steps the remote user must take to attach to your server.
Also located on this tab is a checkbox that enables the network adapter icon to appear in the system tray whenever this connection is active.
Short version: You don't need to make changes here if you provided all of the necessary information during the wizard. The Options tab provides choices for how to handle the initial connection and any subsequent redial attempts.
The word "dial" on this screen is a little misleading since the options aren't strictly for modem-only users. On this screen, you can dictate whether the system should provide you with information about the connection status and how user names, passwords and domain names should be handled.
Further, you can tell Windows what to do if the connection is dropped—should it be automatically redialed or not, for example?
As you can imagine, this is where you specify security settings for the connection. If you set up your VPN server as per the instructions in the previous article, you shouldn't need to change these settings.
If you want to increase security, though, select the "Advanced custom settings " option and make sure those match your server setup. Cause : The VPN connection doesn't have the appropriate permissions through dial-in properties of the user account and remote access policies. Solution : Verify that the VPN connection has the appropriate permissions through dial-in properties of the user account and remote access policies.
For the connection to be established, the settings of the connection attempt must:. For more information about an introduction to remote access policies, and how to accept a connection attempt, see the Windows Server Help and Support Center. Cause : The settings of the remote access policy profile are in conflict with properties of the VPN server. The properties of the remote access policy profile and the properties of the VPN server both contain settings for:.
If the settings of the profile of the matching remote access policy are in conflict with the settings of the VPN server, the connection attempt is rejected.
Solution : Verify that the settings of the remote access policy profile aren't in conflict with properties of the VPN server. Cause : The answering router can't validate the credentials of the calling router user name, password, and domain name. Solution : Verify that the credentials of the VPN client user name, password, and domain name are correct and can be validated by the VPN server.
Solution : If the VPN server is configured with a static IP address pool, verify that there are enough addresses in the pool. If all of the addresses in the static pool have been allocated to connected VPN clients, the VPN server can't allocate an IP address, and the connection attempt is rejected.
If all of the addresses in the static pool have been allocated, modify the pool. Solution : Verify the configuration of the authentication provider. Solution : For a VPN server that is a member server in a mixed-mode or native-mode Windows Server domain that is configured for Windows Server authentication, verify that:.
If not, create the group and set the group type to Security and the group scope to Domain local. You can use the netsh ras show registeredserver command to view the current registration. You can use the netsh ras add registeredserver command to register the server in a specified domain. To immediately effect this change, restart the VPN server computer. For more information about how to add a group, how to verify permissions for the RAS and IAS security group, and about netsh commands for remote access, see the Windows Server Help and Support Center.
If not, type the following command at a command prompt on a domain controller computer, and then restart the domain controller computer:. For more information about Windows NT 4. For more information about how to add a packet filter, see the Windows Server Help and Support Center. Cause : The appropriate demand-dial interface hasn't been added to the protocol being routed.
Solution : Add the appropriate demand-dial interface to the protocol being routed. For more information about how to add a routing interface, see the Windows Server Help and Support Center. Cause : There are no routes on both sides of the router-to-router VPN connection that support the two-way exchange of traffic. Create routes on both sides of the router-to-router VPN connection so that traffic can be routed to and from the other side of the router-to-router VPN connection.
You can manually add static routes to the routing table, or you can add static routes through routing protocols. For more information about how to add an IP routing protocol, how to add a static route, and how to perform auto-static updates, see Windows Server online Help.
Cause : A two-way initiated, the answering router as a remote access connection is interpreting router-to-router VPN connection. Solution : If the user name in the credentials of the calling router appears under Dial-In Clients in Routing and Remote Access, the answering router may interpret the calling router as a remote access client.
Verify that the user name in the credentials of the calling router matches the name of a demand-dial interface on the answering router. If the incoming caller is a router, the port on which the call was received shows a status of Active and the corresponding demand-dial interface is in a Connected state. For more information about how to check the status of the port on the answering router, and how to check the status of the demand-dial interface, see Windows Server online Help.
Cause : Packet filters on the demand-dial interfaces of the calling router and answering router are preventing the flow of traffic. Solution : Verify that there are no packet filters on the demand-dial interfaces of the calling router and answering router that prevent the sending or receiving of traffic. For more information about how to manage packet filters, see Windows Server online Help. Cause : Packet filters on the remote access policy profile are preventing the flow of IP traffic.

The same goes for the second screen, which just tells you some things you need to have completed before adding new roles to your server. On the third screen of the wizard, entitled Server Role, you're presented with a list of available roles for your server along with column that indicates whether or not a particular role has been assigned to this machine.
Take note: This selection just starts another wizard called the Routing and Remote Access Wizard, described further below. Like most wizards, the first screen of the Routing and Remote Access wizard is purely informational and you can just click Next. The second screen in this wizard is a lot meatier and asks you to decide what kind of remote access connection you want to provide. The next screen of the wizard, entitled VPN Connection, asks you to determine which network adapter is used to connect the system to the Internet.
Network adapters are really cheap and separation makes the connections easier to secure. In this example, I've selected the second local area network connection see Figure D , a separate NIC from the one that connects this server to the network. Notice the checkbox labeled "Enable security on the selected interface by setting up Basic Firewall" underneath the list of network interfaces. It's a good idea to enable since option it helps to protect your server from outside attack.
A hardware firewall is still a good idea, too. With the selection of the Internet-connected NIC out of the way, you need to tell the RRAS wizard which network external clients should connect to in order to access resources. Notice that the adapter selected for Internet access is not an option here. Just like every other client out there, your external VPN clients will need IP addresses that are local to the VPN server so that the clients can access the appropriate resources.
Second, you can have your VPN server handle the distribution of IP addresses for any clients that connect to the server. To make this option work, you give your VPN server a range of available IP addresses that it can use. This is the method I prefer since I can tell at a glance exactly from where a client is connecting. If they're in the VPN "pool" of addresses, I know they're remote, for example.
So, for this setting, as shown in Figure F below, I prefer to use the "From a specified range of addresses" option. Make your selection and click Next.
