hi,

if understand scenario:

you running rras 2008 server. have multiple public ip addresses wish issue vpn users.

to need create ip range (scope/pool) on rras server.

1. open routing , remote access.

2. right-click server name want create static ip address pool, , click properties.

3. on ipv4 tab, click static address pool, , click add.

4. in start ip address, type starting ip address, , either type ending ip address range in end ip address, or type number of ip addresses in range in number of addresses.

5. click ok, , repeat steps 3 and 4 many ranges need add.
   

   additional considerations

   • if static ip address pool consists of ranges of ip addresses separate subnet, need either enable ip routing protocol on remote access server computer or add static ip routes consisting of {ip address, mask} of each range routers of intranet. if routes not added, remote access clients cannot receive traffic resources on intranet.
