'''Routing and Remote Access Service''' ('''RRAS''') is a Microsoft [[API]] and server software that makes it possible to create applications to administer the routing and remote access service capabilities of the operating system. RRAS makes it possible for a computer to function as a network router, and developers can also use RRAS to implement routing protocols. The RRAS server functionality follows and builds upon the [[Remote Access Service]] (RAS).<ref name="RRAS MSDN Library">[http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Aa446768], RRAS MSDN Library</ref>

# Multiprotocol [[Router]] - The computer running RRAS can route IP,[[IPX]], and [[AppleTalk]] simultaneously. All routable protocols are configured from the same administrative utility.

# [[Dial-on-demand_routing | Demand-Dial Router]] - IP and IPX can be routed over on-demand or persistantpersistent [[WAN]][ links such as analog phone lines or [[ISDN]], or over [[VPN]] connections.

# [[Remote Access Server]] - provides remote access connectivity to dial-up or VPN remote access clients that use IP,IPX, AppleTalk, or [[NetBEUI]].

Routing services and remote access services used to work separately. [[Point-to-Point Protocol]] (PPP), which is the protocol suite that is commonly used to negotiate point-to-point connections, has allowed them to be combined.

==Abstract==

Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) can be used to create client applications. These applications display RAS common dialog boxes, manage remote access connections and devices, and manipulate phone-book entries.<ref name="RRAS Microsoft MSDN">[http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb545679(v=vs.85).aspx], Routing and Remote Access Service MSDN</ref>
