Hi, everyone.
My name is Richard Hicks, and welcome to my course,
Implementing Microsoft Windows Always On VPN.
I'm the founder and principal consultant at Richard M.
Hicks Consulting.
Always On VPN is the successor to Microsoft's popular
DirectAccess enterprise mobility platform.
While Always On VPN provides much of the same functionality as
DirectAccess, it is implemented and managed much differently.
In this course, we're going to cover the planning and design
aspects of a typical Always On VPN deployment,
deploy VPN infrastructure to support Always On VPN client
connections, and optimize the configuration to align with
implementation and security best practices.
You'll also learn to deploy and manage the Always On VPN client
configuration using Microsoft Endpoint Manager and eliminate single points
of failure by adding redundancy to the infrastructure.
By the end of this course, you'll have a solid understanding of
Always On VPN's infrastructure requirements,
deployment options, and configuration management alternatives.
Before beginning this course,
you should be familiar with basic Active Directory administrative
concepts and have a good understanding of IP networking. Working
knowledge of Active Directory Certificate Services and digital
certificates will also be helpful. I hope you'll join me on this journey
to learn Always On VPN with the Implementing Microsoft Windows Always On VPN course, here at Pluralsight.
