best practices, and real-world troubleshooting tactics—direct from the

This is the essential reference for any
IT professional deploying virtual private networks (VPNs) using Windows
Server 2003 and Windows XP. The book thoroughly details how to implement
remote access and site-to-site VPN connections and their related authentication
technologies for a Windows environment. You’ll learn how to deploy VPN
solutions that use the latest Internet-standard VPN protocols and security
technologies including Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) and Layer
Two Tunneling Protocol with Internet Protocol security (L2TP/IPSec) and
authentication infrastructure components such as Remote Authentication
Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) using the Windows Internet Authentication
Service (IAS), the Active Directory directory service, public key infrastructure
(PKI), and Extensible Authentication Protocol-Transport Layer Security
(EAP-TLS) for certificate authentication. The book also includes a detailed
summary of deployment best practices and four different step-by-step test
lab configurations so that you can get a working configuration up and running
quickly, from which you can experiment and adapt configuration options
to best suit your production deployment of Windows-based VPNs.
