Create a dial-up connection to connect to a
remote access server.
When
a remote access client makes a nonpermanent,
dial-up connection to a physical port on a
remote access server by using the service of a
telecommunications provider such as analog
phone, ISDN, or X.25. The best example of
dial-up networking is that of a dial-up
networking client who dials the phone number of
one of the ports of a remote access server.
Dial-up networking over an analog phone or ISDN
is a direct physical connection between the
dial-up networking client and the dial-up
networking server. You can encrypt data sent
over the connection, but it is not required.
Windows 2000 Server provides traditional dial-up
remote access services to support mobile users
or home users who are dialing in to organization
intranets. Dial-up equipment that is installed
on a remote access server running Windows 2000
answers incoming connection requests from
dial-up networking clients. The remote access
server answers the call, authenticates and
authorizes the caller, and transfers data
between the dial-up networking client and the
organization intranet.
