ABOUT THIS GUIDE

VPN (Virtual Private Network) refers to two different equipment (a computer and firewall) with VPN link capability which can form a secure tunnel over the internet. In the tunnel initiator (server), A user’s private data is encapsulated and encrypted, and then transmitted on the internet; in the receiver side (client), the received data is unpacked and decrypted. VPN services are installed with Windows 2000/2003. This manual is based on the installed VPN service, named Routing and Remote Access. You can find this service from Start→Program→Administrative Tools→Service.


ROUTING & REMOTE ACCESS

From Start→Program→Administrative Tools→Routing and Remote Access, please open the Routing and Remote Access panel. Right-Click on “Routing and Remote Access” on the left-side of the panel, please select “add server” to add a VPN server.

Right click on the added server, and select “Configure and Enable Routing and Remote Access”. If the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service is enabled, the Routing and Remote Access service cannot be enabled, and an ICS service warning message will appear. Disable the ICS service and redo the above operation. After turning on Routing and Remote Access, the following configuration wizard will appear.

Select Remote access (dial-up or VPN) and click next to get into the next page.
