your server??™s properties from within the RRAS management console, you??™ll see six tabs
for configuring your server properties. One of the most important is the General tab
(Figure 11-34). On this property sheet, you can control whether the RRAS server will act
as a router and enable or disable the Remote Access Server. This is useful if you need
to disable remote access for any reason without having to disable Routing and Remote
Access, which would wipe out your configuration.
The Security tab (Figure 11-35) contains options for configuring authentication providers
for validating user credentials for remote access. This can either be your standard
Windows Authentication or RADIUS for a more centralized remote access management
solution. You can further refine your authentication methods by clicking the Authentication
Methods button to access additional properties. As shown in Figure 11-36, you can
configure Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) methods, MS-CHAP v2, CHAP, and
PAP, or even allow remote systems to connect unauthenticated (however, you should
never use this unless you are troubleshooting a situation for which you think your authentication
method is causing problems).
