This chapter is a compact technical summary of the AVM Access
Server’s architecture and functions, and is intended only for network-

6.1 Architecture of the AVM Access Server
The components of the AVM Access Server include:
Services (User Mode)
AVM Access Server (ntmpri, start type: automatic)
AVM User Manager for Access Server (ntreud, start type: automat-
ic)
AVM Web Server for Access Server (webserver, start type: manual)
AVM IKE Service for Access Server (avmike, start type: manual)
AVM Cert Service for Access Server (certsrv, start type: manual)
AVM Crypt Service for Access Server (ntrcrypt, start type: manual)
Because it is integrated in the operating system as a service, the AVM
Access Server is fully operational as soon as the system starts up, be-
fore any user logs in.
The services can be stopped and started in the Control Panel (“Admin-
istrative Tools / Services”) or from the command prompt, using the
commands net start <‘name’> to start and net stop
<‘name’> to stop a service, where ‘name’ is the short name of the
service.
Driver (Kernel Mode)
AVM Access Server Driver (avmasim.sys)
The “AVM Access Server Driver” is an intermediary between the NDIS
network adapter driver and the Windows TCP/IP stack.
