Configuring the Infrastructure

Create a security group for DirectAccess client computers. This allows the DirectAccess clients to be specified. The group will be named Remote Access Computers. To create the group, follow these steps:

1. On the domain controller, launch Server Manager.

2. Select Tools and then Active Directory Users and Computers, expand the companyabc.com domain, and select the Users container.

3. Right-click on Users, select New, and then click Group.

4. In the Group Name field, type Remote Access Computers and click OK.

This group will be used later to assign Group Policy to the DirectAccess clients.
