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

To check the authentication provider being used by the answering router

Open Routing and Remote Access.
In the console tree, right-click the router on which you want to check authentication, and then click Properties.
On the Security tab, verify that the router is configured with the correct security options.
If you are using Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), click IPSec Settings and verify that the IPSec settings are correct.

Note

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.

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.
