Server 2012 R2 RRAS VPN

[TraineeGeek]

Hello,

I'm having a few people struggling to get a VPN connection to our 2012 R2 server. We have a static pool of 13 addresses but they don't all get used even though there is demand from remote users ie the connection attempt is rejected even when there is enough IP addresses in the static pool.

 

 

In this screen shot I'm confused as to what the 192.168.8.192 IP Address is? When the static range was entered it just appeared. Do you need enough free IP address for the range you enter plus the generated IP Address?

 

 

Many thanks

From that screen you have three addresses to give out, 171 to 173. I think 192.168.8.168 is just the broadcast address, i.e. it wont use it but thats where addresses start from i.e. 192.168.8.168/30 or /29.
