VPN Authentication Question

VPN Authentication Question open original image

I am running a router connected to an ASA connected to my Windows domain. I am setting up VPNs on the ASA and I was hoping to get some suggestions and opinions on authentication. Should I use IAS (RADIUS) or is there a way to pass authentication directly to Active Directory? Is that was IAS does? I am new to this. We have a small office and have no more then 25-30 clients that will VPN in for remote access.



Thanks for any and all suggestions.



You need IAS unless you have the VPN module in the ASA. The VPN mod will authenticate directly to AD. Should take you all of about 15minutes to setup, increadibly easy.
