Best Answer

A remote access server enables users who are not on a local network to access, retrieve, file, and print services as though they were. For example, people telecommuting to the office from home may dial into a remote access server. Through that server, users may access drives and printers in the office as though they were connected to the internal office LAN. Security is a paramount consideration in remote access applications.

What is DHCPINFORM?

DHCPInform is a DHCP message used by DHCP clients to obtain DHCP options. While PPP remote access clients do not use DHCP to obtain IP addresses for the remote access connection, Windows 2000 and Windows 98 remote access clients use the DHCPInform message to obtain DNS server IP addresses, WINS server IP addresses, and a DNS domain name. The DHCPInform message is sent after the IPCP negotiation is concluded. The DHCPInform message received by the remote access server is then forwarded to a DHCP server. The remote access server forwards DHCPInform messages only if it has been configured with the DHCP Relay Agent..
