Best Answer

We will get with RRAS the ability to create a fully functional router with our windows

2000 server.

We will get quite a bit of Remote connectivity functionality. It also can support clients dialing in through phone lines, or through the internet through a virtual private network

How do you configure Windows NT RAS Server to Windows 2000 Ras Server?

Add the RRAS computer to the appropriate group: 1. Log on to your computer with an account that has administrator privileges on the Windows 2000 domain. 2. Launch the Active Directory Users and Computers MMC snap-in, and then double-click the domain name. 3. Double-click the Users folder, and then double-click the RAS and IAS Servers security group. 4. Select the members tab. 5. Add the RRAS server to this group. If the organization has more than one domain in the forest, and users from the different domains are trying to log on to the RRAS server, continue to follow steps 1 through 5 until the RRAS server is in the "RAS and IAS Servers" security group for each respective domain. Use the Netsh.exe Utility The Netsh.exe methods can only be used if the RRAS server is Windows 2000-based. Use either of the following methods with the Netsh.exe tool: 1 Log on the RRAS computer using an account that has domain administrator privileges, type netsh ras add registered server at a command prompt, and then press ENTER. 2 To run a command with administrator privileges without being logged in as an administrator: 1. At a command prompt on the RRAS computer, type runas /user:domain name\administrator name "cmd", where domain name is the appropriate domain name, and administrator name is the appropriate administrator name. You are then prompted to enter a password for this account. If this computer is able to connect to the domain controller and verify the credentials, a command prompt opens with the following information in the title bar: cmd (running as domain name\administrator name) 2. At a command prompt, type netsh ras add registeredserver at a command prompt, and then press ENTER.

What are Conditions and Profile in RRAS Policies?

Remote access policies are an ordered set of rules that define whether remote access connection attempts are either authorized or rejected. Each rule includes one or more conditions (which identifies the criteria), a set of profile settings (to be applied on the connection attempt), and a permission setting (grant or deny) for remote access. This can be compared like a brain of the door-keeper (VPN server) which allows entry to your network from outside. Remote access policy decides who can access what resources from where using what tunnel settings. So configuring proper set of policies are important.

In Windows 2003 routing what are the interface filters?

NAT actsas a middle man between the internal and external network; packets coming from the private network are handled by NAT and then transferred to their intended destination. A single external address is used on the Internet so that the internal IP addresses are not shown. A table is created on the router that lists local and global addresses and uses it as a reference when translating IP addresses. NAT can work in several ways: Static NAT An unregistered IP address is mapped to a registered IP address on a one-to-one basis - which is useful when a device needs to be accessed from outside the network. Dynamic NAT An unregistered IP address is mapped to a registered IP address from a group of registered IP addresses. For example, a computer 192.168.10.121 will translate to the first available IP in a range from 212.156.98.100 to 212.156.98.150. Overloading A form of dynamic NAT, it maps multiple unregistered IP addresses to a single registered IP address, but in this case uses different ports. For example, IP address 192.168.10.121 will be mapped to 212.56.128.122:port_number (212.56.128.122:1080). Overlapping This when addresses in the inside network overlap with addresses in the outside network - the IP addresses are registered on another network too. The router must maintain a lookup table of these addresses so that it can intercept them and replace them with registered unique IP addresses. How NAT works A table of information about each packet that passes through is maintained by NAT. When a computer on the network attempts to connect to a website on the Internet: the header of the source IP address is changed and replaced with the IP address of the NAT computer on the way out the "destination" IP address is changed (based on the records in the table) back to the specific internal private class IP address in order to reach the computer on the local network on the way back in Network Address Translation can be used as a basic firewall - the administrator is able to filter out packets to/from certain IP addresses and allow/disallow access to specified ports. It is also a means of saving IP addresses by having one IP address represent a group of computers. Setting up NAT to setup NAT you must start by opening the Configure your server wizard in administrative tools and selecting the RRAS/VPN Server role. Now press next and the RRAS setup wizard will open. The screen below shows the Internet Connection screen in which you must specify which type of connection to the Internet and whether or not you want the basic firewall feature to be enabled. Press next to continue. The installation process will commence and services will be restarted, after which the finish screen will be displayed - showing what actions have taken place. Configuring NAT Configuration of NAT takes place from the Routing and Remote Access mmc found in the Administrative Tools folder in the Control Panel or on the start menu. The screenshot below shows the routing and remote access mmc. Select which interface you wish to configure and double click it. This will bring up the properties window giving you the option to change settings such as packet filtering and port blocking, as well as enabling/disabling certain features, such as the firewall. The remote router (set up previously) properties box is shown below. The NAT/Basic Firewall tab is selected. You are able to select the interface type - to specify what the network connection will be. In my example I have selected for the interface to be a public interface connected to the internet. NAT and the basic firewall option have also been enabled. The inbound and outbound buttons will open a window that will allow you restrict traffic based on IP address or protocol packet attributes. As per your instructions, certain TCP packets will be dropped before they reach the client computer. Thus, making the network safer and giving you more functionality. This is useful if, for example, you wanted to reject all packets coming from a blacklisted IP address or restrict internal users access to port 21 (ftp). For further firewall configuration, go to the Services and Ports tab. Here you can select which services you would like to provide your users access to. You can also add more services by specifying details such as the incoming and outgoing port number. List of services shown in the above screenshot are present. Press Add to bring up the window that will allow the creation of a new service or select an available service and press Edit to modify that service. You will be asked to specify the name, TCP and UDP port number and the IP address of the computer hosting that service. If the services in the list aren't enabled then any client computer on the Windows 2003 domain will not be able to access that specific service. For example, if the computer was configured as shown in the image above and a client computer tried to connect to an ftp site, he would be refused access. This section can prove to be very useful for any sized networks, but especially small ones. That concludes this article. As you have seen, Network Address Translation is a useful feature that adds diversity and security to a network in a small to medium sized company. With the advent, VIJayK


What is the work of system administrator?

If taken at face value, there are no problems with being a system administrator. It allows you to change all aspects of the computer, and gives you an all-access pass to most every file on the computer, including other users'. This can be potentially dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. You start poking around, deleting and moving files, and suddenly your computer displays strange error messages. You've become a virus! Seriously, if you don't trust yourself not to mess with files and folders, create a system administrator account (for installing software and messing with other settings) and then create a limited account. Then, only use the limited account. A simpler rule to follow- never move or delete a file you didn't create yourself unless you are ABSOLUTELY sure you know what you're doing or you are SPECIFICALLY told to mess with something (which won't be often).
