VPN and RRAS in a test lab

[nihil]

Hi Ignatius,

Is this normal behaviour?

I would guess that it is the default, and it is the way I have always seen it done. OK this is going back a while so the setup was different.

I would login to my local network, connect to the remote server and login there, then login to the remote resources. I guess that was the security model?

The environment was such that we were working both locally and remotely, so there would be times when we would have the remote connection open in the background, but would have logged out of the remote resources.

I believe that it is intended to provide an extra layer of security at the remote resource end? Basically, someone might inherit my connection authority but they cannot actually do anything without authenticating to specific resources.

It is a similar situation with local networks? you authenticate to the network but you need further authentication to individual resources/applications.
