Enable EAP

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

To enable EAP

  1. Open Routing and Remote Access.

  2. Right-click the server name for which you want to configure EAP, and then click Properties.

  3. On the Security tab, click Authentication Methods.

  4. In the Authentication Methods dialog box, select the Extensible authentication protocol (EAP) check box, and then click OK.

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.

  • When you enable EAP, all the installed EAP types are enabled. By default, EAP-MD5 CHAP and EAP-TLS are installed if the server is a member of a domain. If the server is not a member of a domain, only EAP-MD5 is installed. To see the installed EAP types, click EAP Methods.

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.
