WMS02: Direct Access Always
Connected: Death of the VPN
• Direct Access Always Connected: Death of the VPN
Take a sprinkling of Windows 7, add Windows Server 2008 R2, IPv6
and IPsec and you have a solution that will allow direct access to
your corporate network without the need for VPNs. Come to this
session to see the ITProGuru (Dan Stolts) and learn how to
integrate DirectAccess into your environment. Can you see the
benefit of your users never having to connect to a VPN? Can you
see the benefit in your IT personal to be able to access remote
computers as long as they are connected to the Internet? Come to
this session to Learn how to control access to corporate resources
and manage Internet connected PCs through group policy.

Authorization:
Computer health is validated or remediated before allowing network access
Protection:
All network transactions are authenticated and encrypted
Policies are based on identity, not on location

The Evidence
“Recently, a sales account executive and I had about an hour-long
drive back to the office from a customer site. With DirectAccess, he
was able
to log on to our network, access the documents he needed, and write
the proposal while I drove. By the time we got back to the office, he
was already hitting the send button to deliver the proposal.”
Rand Morimoto, President, Convergent Computing

DirectAccess:
Technical Foundation
Name Resolution:
DNS and NRPT
Data Protection:
IPsec
Connectivity:
IPv6
Connectivity:
IPv6… Can Do Without… But I Would Not!
• DirectAccess
requires IPv6
• If native IPv6 isn't
available, remote
clients use IPv6
transition technologies
IPv6 Options
DirectAccess works best if the
corporate network has native IPv6
deployed
Internet
Intranet
• The corporate network
can deploy native IPv6,
transition technologies,
or NAT-PT {protocol

Name Resolution:
DNS and the NRPT (Name Resolution Policy Table)
DirectAccess
Connection
Internet
Connection
Remote DirectAccess clients use smart routing
for DNS queries by default
The Name Resolution Policy Table (NRPT) {client side
conditional forwarding} allows this to happen efficiently
DirectAccess sends name queries to intranet
DNS servers based on pre-configured namespace
Requirements for DirectAccess
Customer Knowledge
Should have a basic working knowledge of IPsec or TCP/IP
Should be interested in learning and deploying new technologies, such as
IPv6
DirectAccess Clients
Windows 7 Enterprise Edition or Windows 7 Ultimate Edition
Domain-joined computers
DirectAccess Server
Windows Server 2008 R2, Standard Edition or Higher
Domain-joined computers
Others
DNS Servers Supporting DirectAccess Clients - Windows Server 2008 SP2 or
later
A public key infrastructure (PKI) to issue computer certificates, smart card
certificates, and, for NAP, health certificates.
External Connectivity

Public
6to4IPv6
Teredo
Native
Supports native IPv6
6to4 tunnels IPv6 inside
IPv4 (protocol 41) (used
by public IPv4
addresses)
Teredo tunnels IPv6
inside IPv4 UDP (UDP
3544) (used by private
IPv4 addresses)
DirectAccess

Native IPv6
6to4
Teredo
IP-HTTPS
IP-HTTPS tunnels IPV6
inside IPv4 SSL (TCP
443) if client can’t
connect using 6to4 or
Teredo
Internal IPv6
IPv6 Options
Native IPv6
Works with any server OS that supports
IPv6
Requires IPv6 infrastructure
Delivers best choice over time
ISATAP
DirectAccess works best if the
corporate network has native IPv6
deployed
Internet
Intranet
Tunnels IPv6 inside IPv4
Doesn’t require routing
infrastructure upgrades
Requires Windows Server 2008 or R2
NAT-PT {Protocol Translation}
NAT-PT
Translates IPv6 to IPv4
Works with any server OS

Client Access: Other available

DirectAccess
Server
Multi Factor Credentials for Intranet Access
Two Factor Authentication (TFA) is
fully supported but not required
Edge-based enforcement is a smarter way to enforce TFA
Users are assigned a well-known SID when
they log on with a smartcard (S-1-5-65-)
Users may log on to a laptop without TFA
When users access corporate resources, the
IPsec authorization policy checks for the SID…
Name Resolution Policy Table
(NRPT)
Pertains to the client side only
Uses a static table to define
which DNS servers will be
used by the client for the
listed names
Is configurable via Group
Policy Objects (GPO) at

Windows Settings/Name

CLIENT EXPERIENCE…
Direct Access Deployment
Deployment Strategy
Prepare to monitor IPv6 traffic
Choose an access model (e.g., full
intranet access vs. selected server access)
Determine deployment scale
Deployment Process
Prepare infrastructure
Configure DirectAccess server
Customize policies, as needed
DirectAccess Monitoring

DirectAccess
feature installed on
the DA server

INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING AND DESIGN (IPD) GUIDE
What are IPD Guides?
•
Guidance & best practices for infrastructure planning
of Microsoft technologies
Direct Access Guide Benefits
•
Presents common scenarios, decisions, and practices
in an easy-to-follow, step-by-step process for
designing DirectAccess infrastructure
• Provides a straightforward explanation of the
infrastructure required to allow client connectivity from
any network to resources on the corporate network
• Assists the reader in deploying DirectAccess for
situations
“At the end of the day, IT operations
where the organization hasn’t started IPv6
is really about running your
implementation
business as efficiently as you can so
you have more dollars left for
innovation. IPD guides help us
It’s a free download!
achieve this.”
