Configuring the medium-size office network

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

Configuring the medium-size office network

To configure the medium-size office network described in this scenario, the following steps are completed:

  1. Network adapters are installed and configured.

  2. The Routing and Remote Access service is installed.

  3. RIP is configured.

  4. Remote access devices are configured.

  5. The DHCP Relay Agent is installed and configured.

  6. A WINS or DNS name server is installed.

These steps are outlined in the following sections and are intended as general guidelines for setting up and testing a medium-size office routed IP network.

Installing and configuring network adapters

To install and configure network adapters, the following steps are performed:

  1. Two network adapters are installed in every router.

  2. The drivers are installed for the network adapters.

  3. The TCP/IP protocol is installed.

  4. IP addresses are configured on the network adapters.

The following table shows the IP addresses for this medium-size office network scenario.

Installing the Routing and Remote Access service

For this medium-size office network scenario, the Routing and Remote Access service is installed and enabled as a LAN router on every router. For more information about installing the Routing and Remote Access service, see Enable the Routing and Remote Access service.

On Router 4, the Routing and Remote Access service is installed and enabled as a LAN router and as a remote access server. An IP address pool is created with a starting address of 192.168.1.225 and an ending IP address of 192.168.1.254. This pool allows up to 29 simultaneously connected dial-up networking clients. IP addresses for interfaces on the backbone network must now be selected so that they are within the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.224.

For more information about creating IP address pools, see Create a static IP address pool.

Configuring RIP

On each router, the RIP protocol is configured. To configure RIP, the RIP routing protocol is added to IP, each interface is added to RIP, and then RIP version 2 is enabled on the RIP interface that is connected to the backbone. For more information, see Configure RIP version 2.

This scenario assumes that all the routers on the medium-size office network are servers running Routing and Remote Access that are configured for RIP version 2. If there are existing routers on the network that only support RIP version 1, then you must install and configure RIP version 1.

Configuring remote access devices

In this routing scenario, Router 4 is a remote access server for dial-up networking clients. On Router 4, remote access devices such as modems and ISDN adapters are installed. For more information, see Installing Dial-Up Equipment.

Installing and configuring the DHCP Relay Agent

To use DHCP on the network, the DHCP Relay Agent is installed on Routers 1, 2, and 3, the interfaces that are not on the backbone are configured to use the DHCP Relay Agent, and the DHCP server is configured for use by clients.

For information about configuring the DHCP Relay Agent, see Configure the DHCP Relay Agent.

Installing a WINS or DNS name server

To access network resources by using NetBIOS or domain names, a WINS or DNS name server is installed. For more information, see WINS Overview and DNS Overview.
