During VPN networking for small and medium-sized enterprises, we will encounter many setup problems, here we will introduce you to a configuration scheme for setting up a VPN Server in a LAN, which is illustrated in detail throughout the networking process.
Next I will use Win2000 on the VPN Server, and Win98 on the client side to set the VPN.
1) not configured yet: the VPN in Win2K is included in "Routing and Remote Access Service. After the Win2K server is installed, it automatically exists! However, when you open the "Routing and Remote Access" item in "Administrative Tools" to enter the main window, select "server quasi-status" in the "Tree" column on the left ", you can see from the right that its "status" is in "stopped not configured.
2) Start configuration: To enable the Win2K computer to accept the client's VPN dial-in, you must configure the VPN Server. In the left-side window, select "SERVER" SERVER name), right-click it, and select "configure and enable Routing and Remote Access ".
3) If you have already configured this SERVER and need to start again, right-click the SERVER name on "SERVER" and select "Disable Routing and Remote Access ", you can stop this service to reconfigure it!
4) after entering the Configuration Wizard, in "public settings", click "Virtual Private Network VPN) server" to allow users to access the Internet through the public network) to access this server.
5) in the "remote client protocol" dialog box, generally, if at least the TCP/IP protocol already exists, click "yes, all available protocols are listed and "Next" is required.
6) then, the system will ask you to select another Internet connection used by the server, select the connection method used in the list, for example, a established dial-up connection or a connection through the specified Nic) And then "Next ".
7) when answering the question "How do you want to assign IP addresses to remote clients", unless you have installed the DHCP server on the server, otherwise, select "from a specified IP address range" here ).
8) then enter the starting IP address you want to assign to the client as prompted, and "add" to the list, for example, "192.168.1.80 ~ 192.168.1.90 ". Note that the IP address range must be in the same network segment as the IP address of the server, that is, the "192.168.1" section must be the same !)
9) then select "No, I don't want to set this server to use RADIUS" to complete the final setting. At this time, a small window will automatically appear on the screen that is opening an account "Routing and Remote Access Service". When it disappears, open "service" in "Administrative Tools ", you can see that the "Routing and Remote Access" route and Remote Access) item "is automatically" in "started" status!
