PPTP-based extranet for business partners

Tasmanian Traders is a business partner that uses a router running a Windows Server 2003 operating system to create an on-demand, PPTP-based, router-to-router VPN connection with the Electronic, Inc. corporate office router in New York as needed. When the connection is created and is idle for five minutes, the connection is terminated. The Tasmanian Traders router is connected to the Internet by using a permanent WAN connection.

To deploy a PPTP, one-way initiated, on-demand, router-to-router VPN connection to the corporate office based on the settings configured in Common configuration for the VPN server and Extranet for Business Partners, the following settings are configured on the Tasmanian Traders router:

Notes

  • 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 network (VPN) connection at a time.
