    Hi!

    How DirectAccess 2012 detects management servers? It finds some "old" management servers from environment and lists those in my configuration when staring wizard after first time. Is it possible to avoid it?

    Thanks,

    UV

    Thanks!

    But actually I was interested in how DA conficuration wizard discovers management servers. I have situation where reconfiguring DA infrastructure servers (step 3) one old management server is already listed (automatically discovered) and I want to understand how DA setup wizard discovers it.

    I believe those management servers can be discovered from AD System Management container records, but can anyone confirm it?

    Hi,

    Thank you for the post.

    “How DirectAccess 2012 detects management servers?” - DirectAccess uses two IPsec tunnels to establish connectivity to the corporate network. The DirectAccess client requires the infrastructure tunnel to access infrastructure resources such as DNS, DC, and Management servers. These infrastructure servers are all listed as endpoints in the infrastructure tunnel IPsec policy. Then the intranet tunnel provides access to all other corporate intranet resources.
