I have reserve an IP range for my RAS/VPN client and I have enable logging.

But I can't tell which RAS user is using which IP address, is there anyway
to find it out?

Thanks.
 
On the server side in the RRAS console, click on the 'Remote Access Clients'
tab. On the right pane,double click on the client whose IP address you
want.Under 'Network Registration' the IP address assigned to the client will
be listed.
 
From time to time, I need to back trace who is using which IP address. How
can I do that?

I have tried to look at the RAS log, but still can't figure who is using
which IP.
 
You can assign static IP addresses to the user so that whenever a particular
user dials-in, the specified address is always givn.
For assigning the static IP address for a user Goto the User
Properties ->Dial-in tab ->Check the box "Assign a static IP Address" and
give the address.

Anytime the user logs in, he will get the same IP Address.
 
You can look into the RASIPHLP.LOG file in %windir%\tracing directory. This
file gives the IP address assigned to the clients in Hexadecimal format.
 
First,delete all the logs in %windir%\tracing directory.
Then, give the 'netsh ras set tracing * enabled' command.

After making the connection, before looking into the logs disable tracing
using the command
'netsh ras set tracing * disabled'
And then look for the log in %windir%\tracing
 
It works...............thanks a lot.
