RAS Management Tool
The Virtual Motion Remote Access Manager Suite, by
Acotec, is bundled with the software package. The Remote
Access Manager Suite includes a set of resource management,
access control, and usage accounting tools to help network
administrators and Internet Service Providers manage
Microsoft Windows NT dial-up RAS servers.
The Remote Access Manager Suite is a client/server
application with three components: an administrator program,
a RAS port manager program, and a RAS port monitoring
program. You can select to install the Remote Access Manager
components on a RAS server machine when you install a RAS
support driver.
The Remote Access Manager Suite provides the following
capabilities:
RAS Login Control prevents multiple users from
logging in with the same dial-up account and limits the
multi-link RAS connections remote users can establish.
RAS Port Access Control grants specified user groups
access to particular communications ports.
Port Session Control sets maximum idle and session
connect times for RAS server communications ports.
Port Resource Management limits the connect time
allotted to users over a specified time interval.
Static IP Address Port Assignment associates a static IP
address with a specific RAS communications port.
RASView provides real-time monitoring of RAS ports
and provides alerts for defined RAS server events.
RAS usage accounting, reporting, and event logging
functions detail users RAS sessions.
