Netsh commands for remote access

The following table lists the Netsh commands that you can type at a command prompt to administer a server running Routing and Remote Access. If there are multiple commands for a particular function, they are indicated by separating the individual commands with a slash (/). For example, the command ras add/delete/show registeredserver is actually three separate commands: ras add registeredserver, ras delete registeredserver, and ras show registeredserver.

When you type the command at the command prompt, precede each command with netsh. For the exact syntax of each command, type the command with the ? option. For example, to receive command-line Help on the netsh ras add registeredserver command, type netsh ras add registeredserver ? at the command prompt.
