Do you ever need to file out of the office computer, but you're on the train, at home or away from your desk? Would not it be great to have immediate access to data regardless of where you are? This feature of Server 2008 R2 makes it possible. Use of Internet and networking functionality built into the Windows 7 computer, data can be retrieved quickly and easily.
What is direct access?
direct access to Microsoft's 2008 R2 server is a technology that uses the Internet to connect the system to end users and servers to other network resources, whether within or outside the enterprise LAN.
In the past, to the remote computer to connect to internal company LAN, VPN, or virtual private network was needed. It also uses the Internet as a connection between server and client, but requires several things: the client software installed on your computer, the end user run "dialer" to connect your computer to the company LAN and IT installation and management of VPN client software.
How is it used?
Once configured, the remote user connects to the server without user interaction by turning on your computer and select the corporate network.
after an employee connects to the Internet, they will be presented to all servers and resources which have been granted licenses. This includes e-mail, printers and other computers.
For IT professionals, there is no need to manage VPN client solution acts as the machine level, which means that the computer "knows" what is the server on their system. On your Windows 7 computer, it will link to the corporate network.
In addition, the server can be used for publication of group policies to end-users to help manage the software and computer configuration.
to companies that have remote employees, mobile and remote workers, this technology can ease the burden of IT should have a computer on site for software updates and management.
not only remote workstation and end-user benefits, but other servers can connect to another server resources this feature. For example, if a global company has an internal SharePoint document repository, remote servers located in regional offices can use the Internet to access remote data and then present the file or resource to their local customers, without the need to have data stored nalokalnog server. Again, all servers communicate will require direct access.
What is needed?
In addition to the standard Active Directory, Domain Controller and DNS structure, the server must use the R2 edition of Windows 2008th Also, the server requires two internal network cards and two public IP addresses. Microsoft Web server, Internet Information Server is required.
How is security handled?
As with other servers, you configure authentication for end users and incoming links. Other security services are required PKI and IPSec. PKI certificates are issued to clients authenticate requests and confirm via the public network or the Internet.
IPv6 not require the company LAN, but this technology can be used protokol.IPv6 traffic will be carried over IPv4 LAN and Direct Server feature called ISATAP "Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol", which deal with this function when it is configured.
routing protocol on Name Resolution Policy table or NRPT. This protocol creates a routing table at each to the client so that they know how to deal with traffic directed to the server over other Internet traffic, such as search engines and basic web browsing. If you are sitting in an airport or coffee shop, the server traffic will be transferred directly to him and other traffic will be routed accordingly.
benefits for you
features of Windows 2008 R2 to provide more benefits to IT management and end users. Whether users are working at home, or sitting in an airport, access to the Internet with direct access to easily connect remote workers back to the company and server resources. All data transferred to or from a secured using IPSec, certificates, encryption and user authentication. If you are thinking about using this solution, please contact the Microsoft Deployment guide for successful project performance.
