Navigate to the Connection Security Rules node in the left pane of the Group Policy Editor as you did when you created the previous rule. This rule allows domain members to establish secure connections with one another while at the same time allowing domain members to connect to non-domain members who cannot authenticate. If the computer can authenticate, then the connection will be allowed. If the machine can't authenticate, the connection will fail. When you require security for inbound connection, this will require computers that want to connect to any domain member to authenticate to that domain member using Kerberos. This rule will require authentication for inbound connections, and will request security for outbound connections. This rule will not just request security like the previous rule we created for connections to the domain controller, this rule will require authentication and security when domain members connect to each other. The next rule we will create is the Client and Server Domain Isolation Rule.

At the end of this article we'll test the rule to confirm that IPsec is being applied to the connections and that the connections are being encrypted using ESP.Ĭreating the Client and Server Domain Isolation Rule

In this, part 2 and final part of the series on how to create IPsec domain isolation policy on a simple network, we'll create the client and server domain isolation rule that will require security (authentication) and also configure the server to accept inbound ping connections so that we can test the rule.

In the first part of this two part series on how to create a domain isolation policy using IPsec and the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security console integrated into the Windows Server 2008 Group Policy Editor, I went over how to configure the default IPsec policy to apply ESP encryption on the connections secured by IPsec, and then showed you how to create the domain controllers IPsec policy rule.
