Configuration Requirements for a Network Access Server A network access server is a server that acts as a gateway to a network for a client To configure the network access server, you will need to know: • Whether the server will also act as a router • Authentication methods and providers • Client access • IP address assignment • PPP configuration options • Event logging preferences

Configuration Requirements for a VPN Server Before adding a remote access / VPN server: • Identify which network interface connects to the Internet and which network interface connects to your private network • Identify whether clients receive IP addresses from a DHCP server or the VPN server • Identify whether to authenticate connection requests by RADIUS or by the VPN server

Lesson: Centralizing Network Access Authentication and Policy Management by Using IAS • What Is RADIUS? • What Is IAS? • How Centralized Authentication Works • How to Configure an IAS Server for Network Access Authentication • How to Configure the Remote Access Server to Use IAS for Authentication
What Is RADIUS? RADIUS is a widely deployed protocol, based on a client/server model, that enables centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting for network access • RADIUS is the standard for managing network access for VPN, dial-up, and wireless networks • Use RADIUS to manage network access centrally across many types of network access • RADIUS servers receive and process connection requests or accounting messages from RADIUS clients or proxies
You can configure IAS to support: RADIUS Server • Dial-up corporate access • Extranet access for business partners • Internet access • Outsourced corporate access through service providers What Is IAS? IAS, a Windows Server 2003 component, is an industry-standard compliant RADIUS server. IAS performs centralized authentication, authorization, auditing, and accounting of connections for VPN, dial-up, and wireless connections
