Support for Remote Nodes

The remote access server software supports remote IPX, remote IP, and remote AppleTalk nodes.

To configure support for remote IPX nodes, refer to Remote IPX Nodes.

To configure support for remote IP nodes, refer to Remote IP Nodes.

To configure support for remote AppleTalk nodes, refer to Remote AppleTalk Nodes.

To set up your server to support remote Windows-based IPX clients, you must do the following:

• Load Point-to-Point Protocol Remote Node Service (PPPRNS).
• Configure PPPRNS for Internetwork Packet Exchange^TM (IPX^TM) support.

To configure your server to support remote IP users, you must do the following:

• Configure the server as a TCP/IP router.
• Load PPPRNS.
• Configure PPPRNS for IP support.

To configure your remote access server to support remote AppleTalk nodes, you must perform the following tasks:

• Load AppleTalk and configure the server as an AppleTalk router.
• Load ARAS.
• Set Remote Client passwords.
• Configure ARAS (optional).

You might have already performed some of these tasks if you set up the remote access server for basic operation, as described in Using the Automated Setup Program.
