Before installing ISA Server, test your network connectivity to minimize the
need for troubleshooting connection problems after installation is complete.

Before installing ISA Server, ensure that the Windows 2000 routing
table on the ISA Server computer is configured correctly. The internal adapter
of the ISA Server computer must be able to route packets to all internal network
destinations, and the external network adapter must be able to route packets to
the Internet. To ensure proper routing, add explicit routes for all internal
network destinations, and configure a default gateway on only the external
network adapter.

When you install ISA Server, you must provide the following information:

CD Key. This is the 10-digit number located on back of the CD-ROM case.

Installation options. As part of the installation process, you can install
options from the following ISA Server components:

ISA Services. Controls access of network services for the traffic between
networks. This component is required for the installation.

Add-In Services. Includes the Microsoft H.323 Gatekeeper service, which
allows Microsoft NetMeeting
®
or other H.323-compliant applications to
reach users inside your network. The H.323 protocol is a set of standards
that enable real-time multimedia conferencing and communications over
packet-based networks. Also includes the Message Screener, which
performs content filtering on incoming Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
(SMTP) traffic.
Both of these add-in services are optional.

TRAINER USE
******************************
The LAT is a table of all internal IP addresses. If you install ISA Server in
Firewall mode or Integrated mode, you can configure the LAT during Setup.

ISA Server uses the LAT to determine which IP addresses are inside an
organization’s network and assumes that all other IP addresses are external.
ISA Server uses the LAT to control how computers on the internal network
communicate with external networks. In addition, Firewall clients automatically
download LAT updates from the ISA Server computer. Firewall clients use the
LAT updates to determine which IP addresses they can directly connect to and
which requests they need to forward to the ISA Server computer.
Overview of the LAT
ISA Server can construct the LAT and add the following IP address ranges:

Private IP addresses. ISA Server can add IP addresses that are reserved by
the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) for internal use. Many
organizations use these addresses for internal addresses. These addresses
include 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255, 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255, and
172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255. Add private IP addresses to the LAT only if
you use private IP addressing on your network.

For more information about private IP addresses, see RFC 1918,
“Address Allocation for Private Internets,” under Additional Reading on
the Student Materials compact disc.


Networks from the routing table. ISA Server adds all of the networks that
your computer connects to by using one or more network adapters that you
select. When adding entries from the routing table, ensure that the network
adapter that is configured to connect to your internal network has the correct
routing information for all network segments on your internal network.

Topic Objective
To describe the LAT and the

procedure for configuring
the LAT during Setup.
Lead-in
You can add IP addresses
based on routing table
entries or private IP address
ranges.
Key Points
ISA Server uses the LAT to
determine which IP
addresses are inside an
organization’s network and
assumes that all other IP
addresses are external.
Note
Module 2: Installing and Maintaining ISA Server 11


Configuring the LAT
To configure the LAT during Setup:

When configuring the LAT, add addresses on the private network
only. Do not add the external interface of the ISA Server computer or any
external addresses. In addition, never configure a network adapter with both an
external IP address and an IP address that is in the LAT—doing so can cause
ISA Server to incorrectly enforce security rules and can present a serious
security risk.

1. In the Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2000 Setup
dialog box, click Table.

2. Choose from the following options, and then click OK twice:
• To add private IP address ranges, select the Add the following private
ranges check box.
• To add routing table entries, select the Add address ranges based on
the Windows 2000 Routing Table check box, and then select the check
box for the network adapter that is connected to your internal network.
3. In the Internal IP ranges box, review the list of IP address ranges, make
the following corrections if necessary, and then click OK:
• To remove an address range, in the Internal IP Ranges box, click the
range, and then click Remove.
• To add an address range, in the Edit box, type the beginning and end
addresses of the range, and then click Add.

After configuring the LAT, Setup copies all of the required files and completes
all configuration steps. Unless you specify a different location during an
unattended setup, Setup installs ISA Server in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft
ISA Server folder.
Key Points
Configuring the LAT
correctly is the single most
important part of installing
ISA Server. When
configuring the LAT, include
addresses on the private
network only. Do not add
the external interface of the
ISA Server computer or any
external addresses.

will not work on a computer running Windows 2000. You can disregard this
message and continue installing ISA Server.
4. Install Windows 2000 Service Pack 1.
5. Begin installing ISA Server.

Comparing Proxy Server 2.0 and ISA Server
Configurations
When you upgrade to ISA Server, most rules, network settings, monitoring
configurations, and cache configurations in Proxy Server 2.0 are migrated to
ISA Server. The differences and exceptions between Proxy Server 2.0 and
ISA Server are listed as follows:

Publishing. Proxy Server 2.0 requires that you configure publishing servers
as Winsock Proxy clients. ISA Server allows you to publish internal servers
without requiring any special configuration or software installation on the
publishing server. Instead, ISA Server recognizes the publishing servers as
SecureNAT clients.

Cache. Proxy Server 2.0 cache content is not migrated because of the vastly

different cache storage engine in ISA Server. ISA Server Setup deletes
Proxy Server 2.0 cache content and initializes the new storage engine based
on existing cache and drive settings.

SOCKS. ISA Server policy does not support the migration of Proxy Server
2.0 SOCKS rules. ISA Server includes the SOCKS applications filter, which
allows client SOCKS applications to communicate with the network by
using the applicable array or enterprise policy to determine if the client
request is allowed.

For more information about using SOCKS Version 5 protocol, also
known as Authenticated Firewall Traversal (AFT), see RFC1928, “SOCKS
Protocol Version 5,” under Additional Reading on the Student Materials
compact disc.


Internet Protocol Exchange (IPX) Protocol. ISA Server does not support the
IPX protocol.

Upgrading Client Computers
After you install ISA Server, you may have to upgrade your client computers:

Winsock Proxy clients. Because both the Winsock Proxy Client that is
included with Proxy Server 2.0 and the Firewall Client that is included with
ISA Server are compatible with both server products, you can upgrade client
computers at any time after installing ISA Server and maintain a mixed
environment during migration.

Web Proxy clients. Proxy Server 2.0 uses port 80 for client Hypertext
Transfer Protocol (HTTP) requests. By default, ISA Server uses port 8080.

Therefore, you must configure all downstream chain members and browsers
that connect to the ISA Server computer to connect to port 8080.
Alternatively, you can configure ISA Server to use port 80 for client HTTP
requests.

Key Points
Migration of Proxy Server
2.0 SOCKS rules to
ISA Server policy is not
supported.

The following list includes common installation problems and solutions:

The LAT that the Setup program generates is incorrect. Always double-
check the LAT that the Setup program generates before you continue and
make any required changes. The automatically generated LAT depends on a
correct and complete configuration of your routing table.

You are unable to connect to Internet resources immediately after
installing ISA Server. This result is expected. Before you can fully test
your configuration, you must configure access rules.

ISA Server presented one or more error messages during installation.
Review the event logs in Windows 2000 for more information about the
errors. Remove ISA Server by using Add/Remove Programs in Control
Panel, and then reinstall it. If you cannot remove ISA Server by using
Add/Remove Programs, use the RMISA.exe program, which is located in
the \isa\i386 folder on the ISA Server compact disc.

You cannot join an array because the installation program cannot find
the array. Ensure that the computer can communicate with the other array
members and a domain controller for the current domain.


Users can gain access to Internet sites even though you have not defined
rules that allow access. Your LAT may not be configured correctly. Ensure
that the LAT contains only internal IP addresses.

After upgrading from Proxy Server 2.0, client computers can no longer
connect to Internet resources. Change the port that Web Proxy clients use
to gain access to the ISA Server computer or configure automatic discovery
for clients. ISA Server uses port 8080 for client connections, whereas Proxy
Server 2.0 uses port 80.

ISA Server supports three types of clients: Web Proxy clients, SecureNAT
clients, and Firewall clients.
Comparing ISA Server Clients
The following list describes the features of each type of ISA Server client:

Web Proxy clients. Improve the performance of Web requests. A Web Proxy
client sends requests directly to the ISA Server computer, but Internet
access is limited to the browser. You can configure most Web browsers that
support HTTP 1.1 as Web Proxy clients. Other applications, such as
streaming media client applications, can also function as Web Proxy clients.

SecureNAT clients. Provide security and caching of HTTP requests, but do
not allow for user-level authentication. SecureNAT clients can support most
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocols,
including Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP). To configure a
SecureNAT client, you configure the client computer to route all packets to
the Internet through the ISA Server computer. You typically do this by
setting the default gateway on the client computer to the IP address of the
ISA Server computer. Because a SecureNAT client requires no
configuration other than changing the default gateway, any computer that
uses the TCP/IP protocol can be a SecureNAT client.

Some protocols and applications require secondary connections.
For example, when you use the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) protocol, by
default the client initiates a primary connection to the server, and the server
then initiates a secondary connection to the client. ISA Server must use an
application filter that edits the data stream to allow SecureNAT clients to
use such protocols and applications. ISA Server includes several application
filters, such as an FTP filter and an H.323 filter. If ISA Server does not
contain the appropriate application filter for a protocol or application,
SecureNAT clients cannot use this protocol or application.

Topic Objective
To describe the clients that
are supported by
ISA Server.
Lead-in
ISA Server supports three
types of clients.
Key Points
Only Firewall clients can be
identified and fully
authenticated by
ISA Server.
Important
Module 2: Installing and Maintaining ISA Server 17



Firewall clients. Restrict access on a per-user basis for outbound access for
requests that use the TCP and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) protocols. To
configure a Firewall client, you must install the Firewall Client software on

each client computer. You can install the Firewall Client software on
computers running Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition, Microsoft
Windows 95 OSR2, Microsoft Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, or
Windows 2000 only.


You can configure a computer to use multiple client types
simultaneously. For example, you can configure a computer as a Web Proxy
client for requests that are issued from within a browser, as a Firewall client to
forward all requests from Winsock applications that use the TCP and UDP
protocols, and as a SecureNAT client for all other protocols, such as ICMP.

Determining Which ISA Clients to Use
Use the following guidelines to determine which clients to deploy for
ISA Server.
If you want to Then use

Improve the performance of Web
requests for internal clients
Web Proxy clients.
Avoid deploying client software or
configuring client computers
SecureNAT clients. SecureNAT clients do not
require any software or specific configuration.
Improve Web performance in an
environment with non-Microsoft
operating systems
SecureNAT clients. SecureNAT client
requests are transparently passed to the
Microsoft Firewall service and then to the

caching service for caching.
Publish servers that are located on your
internal network
SecureNAT clients. You can publish internal
servers to make them available to external
users. When you publish internal servers, you
configure the servers as SecureNAT clients.
Because the published servers are SecureNAT
clients, you do not need to configure settings
on the published server. Microsoft does not
recommend configuring published servers as
Firewall clients.
Allow Internet access for only
authenticated users
Firewall clients or Web Proxy clients. You
can configure user-based access policy rules
for Firewall clients and Web Proxy clients.

You do not need to install any software to configure Web Proxy clients.

However, you must configure the Web browser on the client computer to use
the ISA Server computer as the proxy server. Other applications that use Web
protocols may also be able to function as Web Proxy clients. Some of these
applications can obtain their configuration settings from your Web browser.
Others may require additional configuration steps. The exact configuration
steps for configuring ISA Server depend on the Web browser that you use.

Web browser helper applications that use protocols other than
HTTP, such as Microsoft Windows Media
™
Player, do not use ISA Server to
connect to the Web. To allow helper applications to connect to the Web, you
must use the SecureNAT client or the Firewall client in addition to the Web
Proxy client.

To configure Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or later to use the Microsoft Web
Proxy service:
1. Open the Properties dialog box for Internet Explorer. On the Connections
tab, click LAN Settings, and then in the Local Area Network (LAN)
Settings dialog box, select the Use a proxy server check box.
2. In the Address box, type a valid path to the ISA Server computer.
3. In the Port box, type the port number that the ISA Server computer uses for
Web Proxy client connections, which is 8080 by default, and then click OK
twice.
If you want your Web browser to bypass the ISA Server computer when
connecting to local computers, you can also select the Bypass proxy server
for local addresses check box. Bypassing the ISA Server computer for
local computers may improve Web browser performance.

Although SecureNAT clients do not require specific software, you must
configure SecureNAT clients to route all network traffic to the Internet through
the ISA Server computer. How you configure the client computer depends on
whether your network uses routers between the ISA Server computer and the
SecureNAT clients.
Configuring Clients on Networks That Do Not Use
Routers
To configure SecureNAT clients on a network without routers, set the
SecureNAT client's IP default gateway settings to the IP address of the
ISA Server computer's internal network adapter by manually changing the
default gateway setting or by using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP).
Configuring Clients on Networks That Use Routers
To configure SecureNAT clients on a network with routers, set the default
gateway settings to the router closest to the SecureNAT client. Ensure that the
router is configured to forward IP packets to the Internet so that all packets are
routed through the ISA Server computer. Optimally, routers should use a
default gateway that routes along the shortest path to the ISA Server computer.
In addition, do not configure routers to discard packets destined for addresses
outside of the internal network. The ISA Server computer will determine how
to route these packets.
