Tom, that is what I am talking about, allow me to give you some background, I have a dedicated T-1 line from my office building to my ISP's C.O, from there it passes over another provider before traversing the Internet cloud, Yes it is a dedicated link, did I miss the joke? -----Original Message----- From: Thomas W Shinder [mailto:tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, March 02, 2003 9:08 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: PPTP & L2TP VPN Tunnels http://www.ISAserver.org Hi Glenn, LOL! We're talking about the Internet right? There is no such thing as a permanant connection on the Internet. If you've had permanant VPN connections, then you must have done them over a dedicated link, not over the Internet.

At this point I am scratching my head. A Wake on Demand VPN tunnel is something I can not use in my network, I need the tunnels to be permanent 24x7 unless I tear them down. May I ask this, Are the PPTP and L2TP tunnels that ISA support Wake on Demand? or can they be configured to be permanent and always on. -----Original Message----- From: Thomas W Shinder [mailto:tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 2:58 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: PPTP & L2TP VPN Tunnels http://www.ISAserver.org Hi Glenn, Does the tunnel reconnect if a client behind the ISA Server makes a request?

Both of these ISA servers were built as standalone integrated web cache, firewall and proxy. I did install the Certificate service on one of the ISA servers, keeping in mind this is only to evaluate the ISA platform. My remote ISA server that ran Remote VPN wizard and read the config file also requested and installed a Cert from the Cert server? There must be a way to build either a PPTP or L2TP tunnel and have it enabled and always connected. What am I missing here?
