Lesson 4: Overview of DirectAccess • Discussion: Complexities of Managing VPNs What Is DirectAccess? Components of DirectAccess What Is the Name Resolution Policy Table? How DirectAccess Works for Internal Clients How DirectAccess Works for External Clients Configuring DirectAccess
Discussion: Complexities of Managing VPNs What are the challenges you face when you implement VPNs?
What Is DirectAccess? Features of DirectAccess: • Connects automatically to corporate network over the public network • Uses various protocols, including HTTPS, to establish IPv6 connectivity • Supports selected server access and IPsec authentication • Supports end-to-end authentication and encryption • Supports management of remote client computers • Allows remote users to connect directly to intranet servers DirectAccess enables seamless remote access to intranet resources without first establishing a VPN connection
Components of DirectAccess AD DS domain controller DNS server Internal clients Internet websites DirectAccess server IPv6/IPsec External clients NRPT/ Consec Internal network resources Network location server PKI deployment
What Is the Name Resolution Policy Table? NRPT is a table that defines DNS servers for different namespaces and corresponding security settings. It is used before the adapter’s DNS settings. • Using NRPT: • DNS servers can be defined for each DNS namespace rather than for each interface • DNS queries for specific namespaces can be optionally secured by using IPsec
