'''Routing and Remote Access Service''' ('''RRAS''') is a Microsoft [[API]] and server software make it possible to create applications to administer the routing and remote access service capabilities of the operating system, 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 (computing)|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 persistent [[Wide area network|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]].
