What is VPN? A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a secure network tunnel that allows you to connect to your private
network from internet locations. So, you can access and use your internal resources based on your
permissions.
Existing Active directory environment 1. OS: Windows server 2016
2. Domain Name: ITPROLABS.XYZ
3. Domain IP: 192.168.153.10/24
4. IP Scheme: 192.168.153.0/24

Existing DHCP Server Configuration: VPN clients will contact the DHCP server to obtain our internal TCP/IP configuration so they can
access internal resources, the DHCP server configuration explained as below: 1. Server IP: 192.168.153.10/24
2. Scope range: 192.168.153.50 – 192.168.153.254
3. DG: 192.168.153.2
4. DNS: 192.168.153.10

VPN Server Setup and Configurations Server Name: VPN
LAN IP: 192.168.153.11/24
WAN IP: public IP address
Network configuration:
We have 2 network interfaces one for LAN connectivity (in our domain scope) and another for WAN that will
receive VPN client connection requests from internet.

VPN Configuration Steps:
Step 1: Join VPN Server to ITPROLABS.XYZ domain
First, Join our VPN server to ITPROLABS.XYZ domain, so we can use active directory to authenticate the
incoming VPN client connections.
Step 2: Add Remote Access role
On VPN server, from Server Manager add remote access role as explained in the figures below

Here we will allow incoming VPN clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration from DHCP, also It’s better to allow VPN users
to use the internal DNS server, so they can locate and access internal resources easily
Step 5: Configure a preshared key for IPSec connection
On VPN server configure preshared key that will be used in IPSec connections

Disable PPTP connections
By default, VPN Server can receive 128 concurrent PPTP, SSTP and L2TP connections, you can increase this number of
concurrent connections or decrease it or disable it by decrease the mentioned number - 128 - to zero, as explained
in the figures below

Allowing internet users to connect through VPN
Step 1: Active Directory Configuration Create active directory group to only allow members of this group to connect through VPN, to do this
from active directory users and computers we will create active directory group (VPN_Users) and add
member user to it (aabdelwahed) so we can use him as user testing. The following instructions are
configured on ITPROLABS.XYZ domain (DC01)

Now you can add members to this group that you want to allow them to connect through VPN

Step 2: Configure the Remote Access policies (NPS) Users you want to allow them to connect through VPN must have grant access permission from Network policy
Server or give users dial in grant access (One by one) permission from active directory users and computers wizard,
in our scenario we will configure this permission through Network Policy Server (NPS) to allow members of
VPN_Users group (Bulk Users) that we just created in active directory to access the network through VPN. the
following steps configured on VPN Server.
On VPN, from Server Manager, open the Network Policy Server console
