- NAT (Network Address Translation).
- Dial-up and VPN Demand Dial Router.
RRAS found in Windows versions 2000, 2003, 2008 and 2008. As a simple example I will create a router to connect two different networks as shown in the picture below.

13. Tombil summary window appears click Finish.

14. Jendala popup will appear automatically start the service click Start tombil Services.

15. Until here, the installation process is complete RRAS

16. Then you can address the Windows server (RRAS), and a computer that will be made in the experiment as in the picture above.

ISI-Client10

Windows router (RRAS)

Chels

17. After that, try doing a ping to test:

Ping from ISI-Client10 to Chels

Ping from Chels to ISI-Client10

18. Ping has been successful outcome of the ISI-Client10 to Chels and vice versa.

19. To view the routing table can adan typing route print

Then you can add a few more routers to create a more complex network configuration, safe learning
