Remote access VPN connection
A remote access client (a single user computer) makes a
remote access VPN connection that connects to a private network. The VPN
server provides access to the entire network to which the VPN server is
attached. The packets sent from the remote client across the VPN
connection originate at the remote access client computer.
The remote access client (the VPN client) authenticates
itself to the remote access server (the VPN server) and, for mutual
authentication, the server authenticates itself to the client.
Note
On Windows Server 2003, Web Edition, and Windows Server 2003, Standard
Edition, you can create up to 1,000 Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol
(PPTP) ports, and you can create up to 1,000 Layer Two Tunneling
Protocol (L2TP) ports. However, Windows Server 2003, Web Edition, can
accept only one virtual private nethttp://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=824892627318881075&postID=5515211152184438891work (VPN) connection at a time.
Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition, can accept up to 1,000 concurrent
VPN connections. If 1,000 VPN clients are connected, further connection
attempts are denied until the number of connections falls below 1,000.
Computers running Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT® 4.0,
Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows XP, or a Windows
Server 2003 operating system can create remote access VPN connections to
a VPN server running Windows Server 2003. VPN clients may also be any
non-Microsoft Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) client or Layer
Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) client with Internet Protocol security
(IPSec).
