Security

A client dials a remote access server on your network and is granted access to the network if:

• The request matches one of the remote access policies defined for the server.

• The users account is enabled for remote access.

• Client/server authentication succeeds.

After the client has been identified and authorized, access to the network can be limited to specific servers, subnets, and protocol types, depending on the remote access profile of the client. Otherwise, all services typically available to a user connected to a local area network (including file and print sharing, Web server access, and messaging) are enabled by means of the remote access connection.
