Connecting Your Network to the Internet

INTRODUCTION In today’s business, being connected to the marketplace and to your customers

means getting connected to the Internet. Microsoft® Windows® 2000 makes it easier to securely connect your network to the Internet, enabling your employees to access the information they need. Connecting a medium-sized office network to the Internet has traditionally been a difficult process requiring separate machines and extensive knowledge of network devices. For many, making a connection to the Internet seemed costly and difficult to manage.

With Windows 2000 Server, making a connection to the Internet is easy, secure, and can be accomplished with relatively inexpensive hardware and basic Internet service provider (ISP) services.

This guide is intended for users of medium-sized Windows 2000 domain-based networks who want to set up Internet access and share it with local area network clients. It assumes a basic understanding of domain-based networks, Domain Naming Services (DNS), and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This guide is not intended as a comprehensive review of all routing features of Windows 2000, rather, it is a focused guide of the basic Internet gateway capabilities.

Connecting Your Network to the Internet

Scenario Requirements

This document will walk you through setting up a Windows 2000-based server as an Internet connection server that shares access with a local area network. This guide builds on the network configuration in the “Upgrading a Windows NT Domain to Windows 2000 Active Directory” deployment scenario guide. (It shows how to configure a single domain-based Windows 2000 network with DNS and DHCP services enabled.)

To connect to the Internet, this guide assumes you have an active account with an ISP and a physical connection to the Internet. This could be a dial-up connection, like an analog modem or ISDN, or a dedicated connection like a cable modem or Digital Subscriber Line (DSL).

To configure the server for Internet access sharing, you will need to install the Routing and Remote Access Services (RRAS) that is included with the Optional Windows 2000 components package. To install this component on your Windows 2000 Server, click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, click Configure your server, click Networking and click Routing. Follow the

instructions on this page to install the RRAS. You must have network administrator righ …… 此处隐藏：14726字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
