Configuring the RAS Software
On the JACE-NP, dialing into and out of the JACE-NP is a function of NT’s Remote
Access Server (RAS). RAS is an optional Windows NT 4.0 service that allows users
to log into an NT-based LAN using a modem, X.25 connection, or WAN link. RAS
works with several of the most popular network protocols including TCP/IP, IPX,
and NetBEUI.
RAS is pre-installed on the JACE-NP. However, setting it up is a two step process:
• Configuring RAS
