1. Do one of the following:

   • Open Internet Authentication Service and, if necessary, double-click Internet Authentication Service.

2. In the console tree, click Remote Access Policies.

5. On the Dial-in Constraints tab, specify any required settings.

Notes

• To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Administrators group. As a security best practice, consider using the Run As command rather than logging on with administrative credentials. If you have logged on with administrative credentials, you can also open Routing and Remote Access by clicking Start, clicking Control Panel, double-clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-clicking Routing and Remote Access. For more information, see Default local groups, Default groups, and Using Run as.

• To open Internet Authentication Service, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Internet Authentication Service.

• Dial-in constraints should work with most network access servers, however, some network access servers might not support the RADIUS attributes that are required to enable dial-in constraints. For more information, see your NAS documentation.

Information about functional differences

• Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
