Step-by-Step Guide for Setting Up VPN-based Remote Access in a Test Lab

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
This guide provides detailed information about how you can use five computers to create a test lab with which to configure and test virtual private network (VPN) remote access with the Microsoft® Windows® XP Professional operating system with Service Pack 2 (SP2) and the 32-bit versions of the Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 operating system with Service Pack 1 (SP1). These instructions are designed to take you step-by-step through the configuration required for a Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) connection, a Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) with Internet Protocol security (L2TP/IPsec) connection, and a VPN connection that uses certificate-based Extensible Authentication Protocol-Transport Level Security (EAP-TLS) authentication.
noteNote
The following instructions are for configuring a test lab using a minimum number of computers. Individual computers are needed to separate the services provided on the network and to show the desired functionality clearly. This configuration is designed to reflect neither best practices nor a desired or recommended configuration for a production network. The configuration, including IP addresses and all other configuration parameters, is designed to work only on a separate test lab network.

Setting Up the Test Lab for PPTP, L2TP/IPsec, and EAP-TLS Remote Access VPN Connections

The infrastructure for the VPN test lab network consists of five computers performing the following services:
  • A computer running Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Enterprise Edition, named DC1 that is acting as a domain controller, a Domain Name System (DNS) server, a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, and a certification authority (CA).
  • A computer running Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Standard Edition, named IAS1 that is acting as a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server.
  • A computer running Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Standard Edition, named IIS1 that is acting as a Web and file server.
  • A computer running Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Standard Edition, named VPN1 that is acting as a VPN server. VPN1 has two network adapters installed.
  • A computer running Windows XP Professional with SP2 named CLIENT1 that is acting as a VPN client.
The following diagram shows the configuration of the VPN test lab.
VPN-based Remote Access Test Lab Configuration There is a network segment representing a corporate intranet and a network segment representing the Internet. All computers on the corporate intranet are connected to a common hub or Layer 2 switch. All computers on the Internet are connected to a separate common hub or Layer 2 switch. Private addresses are used throughout the test lab configuration. The private network of 172.16.0.0/24 is used for the intranet. The private network of 10.0.0.0/24 is used for the simulated Internet. Windows Firewall is set up and configured on the RADIUS server (IAS1), the Web and file server (IIS1), and the client computer (CLIENT1). Windows Firewall should not be turned on or configured on either the domain controller (DC1) or the VPN server (VPN1). In addition, the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service should be disabled on VPN1.
IIS1 obtains its IP address configuration using DHCP. CLIENT1 uses DHCP for its IP address configuration; however, it is also configured with an alternate IP configuration so that it can be placed on either the intranet network segment or the simulated Internet. All other computers have a manual IP address configuration. There are no Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) servers present.
To reconstruct this test lab, configure the computers in the order presented, beginning with the PPTP-based remote access VPN connection. Additional sections of this guide describe L2TP/IPsec-based and EAP-TLS-based remote access VPN connections.

PPTP-based Remote Access VPN Connections

The following sections describe how to set up and configure each of the computers in the test lab for a PPTP-based remote access VPN connection. PPTP is typically used when there is no public key infrastructure (PKI) to issue computer certificates that are required for L2TP/IPsec connections.

DC1

DC1 is a computer running Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Enterprise Edition, that is providing the following services:
  • A domain controller for the example.com Active Directory® domain.
  • A DNS server for the example.com DNS domain.
  • A DHCP server for the intranet network segment
  • The enterprise root certification authority (CA) for the example.com domain.
noteNote
Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Enterprise Edition, is used so that autoenrollment of user certificates for EAP-TLS authentication can be configured. This is described in the "EAP-TLS-based Remote Access VPN Connections" section of this guide.

EAP-TLS-based Remote Access VPN Connections

EAP-TLS-based remote access VPN connections require a user certificate on the VPN client and a computer certificate on the IAS server. EAP-TLS is for authenticating your VPN connection with the most secure user-level authentication protocol. Locally installed user certificates, enabled in the following steps, make it easier to set up a test lab. In a production environment, it is recommended that you use smart cards, rather than locally installed user certificates, for EAP-TLS authentication.
