Routing and Remote Access Snap-In

The Routing and Remote Access snap-in is available from the Administrative Tools folder and is the primary management utility for configuring Windows 2000 local and remote access servers and routers.

Routing and Remote Access Floating Windows

Within the Routing and Remote Access snap-in is a series of floating windows that display table entries or statistics. Once displayed, a floating window can be moved anywhere on the display and remains on top of the Routing and Remote Access snap-in when the snap-in is the foreground application. Table 2.1 lists the floating windows in the Routing and Remote Access snap-in, and their location.
