A feature built into
Windows NT that enables users to
log into an NT-based
LAN using a
modem, X.25 connection or
WAN link. RAS works with several major network protocols, including
TCP/IP, IPX, and
Netbeui.
To use RAS from a remote node, you need a RAS client program, which is built into most versions of Windows, or any PPP client software. For example, most remote control programs work with RAS.
