Introduction to IPv6 on Windows Server 2022 IPv6 is the successor to IPv4, designed to address the exhaustion of 32-bit address space by providing a 128-bit address space capable of supporting approximately 3.4 × 10³⁸ unique addresses. Windows Server 2022 ships with full IPv6 support enabled by default, and Microsoft has been clear that IPv6 […]
How to Set Up VLAN Support on Windows Server 2022 Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) segment a physical network into multiple isolated logical networks using 802.1Q VLAN tagging. On Windows Server 2022, VLAN support is available at multiple layers: directly on a physical network adapter (access port configuration), on NIC team members, on NIC team […]
How to Configure Teaming Network Adapters on Windows Server 2022 NIC Teaming combines multiple physical network adapters into a single logical adapter, providing increased bandwidth and automatic failover when an individual adapter or switch port fails. Windows Server 2022 supports two fundamentally different teaming technologies: Load Balancing and Failover (LBFO), the native Windows NIC Teaming […]

What Is RRAS and What Can It Do Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) is a multi-purpose networking role in Windows Server 2022 that provides VPN server capabilities, NAT (Network Address Translation), LAN routing, and dial-up remote access from a single unified service. Understanding RRAS’s full capabilities is essential before deployment, because the configuration path […]
What Is SSTP and Why Use It Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) is a VPN tunneling protocol developed by Microsoft that encapsulates Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) traffic inside HTTPS (SSL/TLS) on port 443. Because it uses the same port as standard HTTPS web traffic, SSTP VPN connections can traverse virtually any corporate firewall, web proxy, and […]
Always On VPN vs DirectAccess: Why the Upgrade Matters Always On VPN (AOVPN) is Microsoft’s modern replacement for DirectAccess, introduced with Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016. While DirectAccess provided transparent remote access using IPv6-over-IPv4 tunneling and IPsec, it was tightly coupled to Active Directory group policy, required IPv6 infrastructure, only supported domain-joined Windows Enterprise […]
Introduction to Network Load Balancing on Windows Server 2022 Network Load Balancing (NLB) is a built-in Windows Server feature that distributes incoming TCP/IP traffic across multiple servers in a cluster. Unlike Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC), which provides high availability by moving a service from a failed node to a healthy one, NLB distributes load […]
