Remote access policies for different types of VPN connections

To create remote access policies for different types of VPN connections, do the following:

1. Create different remote access policies for different types of connections

  1. On IAS1, use the New Remote Access Policy Wizard to create a new custom remote access policy with the following settings:
  • Policy name: PPTP connections

  • Conditions: NAS-Port-Type matches Virtual (VPN) and Tunnel-Type matches Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)

  • Permission: Grant remote access permission

  • Profile settings, IP tab, Input packet filter

    • Deny all traffic except those listed below

    • Destination network, IP address: 172.16.0.1

    • Destination network, Subnet mask: 255.255.255.255

    • Protocol: Any

  • Profile settings, IP tab, Output packet filter:

    • Deny all traffic except those listed below

    • Source network, IP address: 172.16.0.1

    • Destination network, Subnet mask: 255.255.255.255

    • Protocol: Any

    For more information, see Add a remote access policy.

  1. Use the New Remote Access Policy Wizard to create a new custom remote access policy with the following settings:
  • Policy name: L2TP connections

  • Conditions: NAS-Port-Type matches Virtual (VPN) and Tunnel-Type matches Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)

  • Permission: Grant remote access permission

  • Profile settings, IP tab, Input packet filter:

    • Deny all traffic except those listed below

    • Destination network, IP address: 172.16.0.2

    • Destination network, Subnet mask: 255.255.255.255

    • Protocol: Any

  • Profile settings, IP tab, Output packet filter:

    • Deny all traffic except those listed below

    • Source network, IP address: 172.16.0.2

    • Destination network, Subnet mask: 255.255.255.255

    • Protocol: Any

2. Make a PPTP connection and test connectivity

  1. On CLIENT1, make a VPN connection with VPN1 using the PPTP connection.

  2. Use the ping command to ping DC1 at its IP address of 172.16.0.1.

  3. Use the ping command to ping IAS1 at its IP address of 172.16.0.2.

    This command fails because packet filtering for all connections that match the PPTP connections policy allows only traffic sent to and from the IP address of 172.16.0.1.

  4. Disconnect the PPTP connection.

3. Make an L2TP connection and test connectivity

  1. On CLIENT1, make a VPN connection with VPN1 using the L2TP connection.

  2. Use the ping command to ping IAS1 at its IP address of 172.16.0.2.

  3. Use the ping command to ping DC1 at its IP address of 172.16.0.1.

    This command fails because packet filtering for all connections that match the L2TP connections policy allows only traffic sent to and from the IP address of 172.16.0.2.

  4. Disconnect the L2TP connection.

4. Check the system event log for RADIUS events

  • On IAS1, use Event Viewer to view the IAS events in the system event log for the connections that were recently created. Note that the authentication event message text contains the name of the remote access policy that accepted the connection.

IAS as a RADIUS proxy for the VPN server

To configure IAS2 as the RADIUS proxy for the VPN server, do the following:

1. Reconfigure VPN1 with IAS2 as its RADIUS server

  1. On VPN1, remove IAS1 as the RADIUS server for the RADIUS authentication provider. Next, configure IAS2 as the RADIUS server for the RADIUS authentication provider with the IP address of 172.16.0.3 and the shared secret. For more information, see Use RADIUS authentication.

  2. On VPN1, remove IAS1 as the RADIUS server for the RADIUS accounting provider. Next, configure IAS2 as the RADIUS server for the RADIUS accounting provider with the IP address of 172.16.0.3 and the shared secret. For more information, see Use RADIUS accounting.

2. Reconfigure IAS1 with IAS2 as a RADIUS client

  1. On IAS1, remove VPN1 as a RADIUS client. For more information, see Delete a RADIUS client.

  2. On IAS1, add IAS2 as a RADIUS client with the client address of 172.16.0.4, the client vendor of Microsoft, and a shared secret. For more information, see Add RADIUS clients.

3. Configure IAS2 as a RADIUS proxy between VPN1 and IAS1

  1. On IAS2, add VPN1 as a RADIUS client with the client address of 172.16.0.4, the client vendor of Microsoft, and a shared secret. For more information, see Add RADIUS clients.

  2. On IAS2, create a remote RADIUS server group that contains IAS1. For more information, see Add a remote RADIUS server group. In the New Remote RADIUS server Group Wizard, configure the following:

    • Group name: Testlab

    • Primary server: 172.16.0.2

    • Shared secret: SharedSecret
      Do not configure a backup server.

  3. Create a new connection request policy. For more information, see Add a connection request policy. In the New Connection Request Policy Wizard, configure the following:

    • Policy name: Proxy

    • Select the option to Forward connection requests to a remote RADIUS server for authentication

    • Realm name: testlab.microsoft.com

    • Clear the Before authentication, remove the realm name from the user name: check box.

    • server group: Testlab

Note

  • IAS1 and IAS2 must use the same shared secret. Additionally, IAS2 and VPN1 must use the same shared secret. The shared secret that is used between IAS1 and IAS2 can be different than the shared secret that is used between IAS2 and VPN1.

4. Make a PPTP connection

  1. On CLIENT1, make a VPN connection with VPN1 using the PPTP connection.

  2. Use ping to ping DC1 at its IP address of 172.16.0.1.

  3. Use ping to ping IAS1 at its IP address of 172.16.0.2.

    This command fails because packet filtering for all connections that match the PPTP connections policy allows only traffic sent to and from the IP address of 172.16.0.1.

  4. Disconnect the PPTP connection.

In this configuration, the authentication and accounting messages that are sent by the VPN server are being forwarded from IAS2 to IAS1.
