There's a mini-DHCP allocator that comes with RRAS but it won't allow you to specify reservations. &nbsp;You can only do that with a regular DHCP server. &nbsp;Are you trying to set this up for one user &amp;&nbsp;one machine or many users with many machines?

After thinking about this some more I remembered you can set this on the user account properties. &nbsp;Just open the user account using Active Directory Users and Computers and select the Dial-in tab, &nbsp;toward the bottom, there is an option to set a static address for that user. &nbsp;Just make sure it's in the range that the mini-dhcp allocator creates. &nbsp;To check that range, go to RRAS and select the properties of the server, then select the IP tab. &nbsp;

I have routing and remote access setup on my server and I would like when an end user VPN's in to have a static IP rather than a dynamic. Is there anyway to do this and can I do it for only one end user??

Static IP Address for a VPN connection

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Windows Server 2003

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
