RE: ISA 2004 and RRAS



Hi Edward,

How are you doing? Thank you for your response.
In my case, my SBS 2003 has 3 NIC´s:
- LAN, for my internal users
- WAN, for Interner
- INTRANET, for another network connected to England by CISCO router.
Before upgrade to ISA 2004 my RRAS was responsable for routing communication
from LAN to INTRANET then, after SBS´s SP1 installation, I noticed that when
I stopped Firewall Services (ISA 2004 Console) my RRAS stopped too.
I realized that my communication between LAN users and INTRANET applications
becomes slow; the reason is that RRAS was managing the communication and now
that work is being performed by ISA 2004 (besides Internet traffic)?
Your confirmation was a good news for me.
One more question, If it is not an abuse :-) :
- after installing ISA 2004 the Group SBS Internet Users is changed by Any
Request. Is this "normal" behaviour?

Thank you again, Edward.

Have a nice wekend.

Regards.

Luiz
