After all the migration steps are completed, you can use the following procedure to verify that the migration of the Routing and Remote Access service was successful. If the migration failed, you can return to the previous valid configuration by following the roll-back steps in RRAS Migration: Performing Post-Migration Tasks.

Verifying the destination server configuration

Membership in the local Administrators group or equivalent is the minimum required to complete these procedures. If User Account Control (UAC) is enabled, then you might have to run the following steps by using the Run as administrator option. For more information, see Run a program with administrative credentials in the Windows Server TechCenter (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=131210).

We recommend that you check the configuration of the destination RRAS server, from the service start-up to the detailed configuration of individual components. The following sections provide a list of items to check. Depending on which RRAS components are enabled on your server, only some of these checks might be necessary.

Installation state of RRAS

The first verification step is to confirm that the RRAS feature installed successfully.

To verify that the Routing and Remote Access service installed on the destination server

Open a Windows PowerShell session with elevated user rights.
Import the Server Manager module into the Windows PowerShell session by running the following command:
```
Import-Module Servermanager
```
View the installation status of the Routing and Remote Access service by running the following command:
```
Get-WindowsFeature npas-rras-services
```
The check box on the left of the Routing and Remote Access Services feature name is selected if the service is installed on the destination server. If it is not installed, the check box is clear.

Status of RRAS

Verify that the RRAS service is running.

To verify that the Routing and Remote Access service is running on the destination server

Open a Windows PowerShell session with elevated user rights.
View the service status of the Routing and Remote Access service by running the following command:
```
Get-service RemoteAccess
```
Examine the Status column. It should read Running.

Remote access configuration

Confirm the configuration settings for the RRAS server and ports.

To verify the RRAS configuration settings

Start Server Manager.
In the navigation pane, expand Roles, expand Network Policy and Access Services, and then expand Routing and Remote Access.
Right-click Routing and Remote Access, and then click Properties.

On each tab, confirm that the destination server is configured the same as the source server, and then click OK.
In the navigation pane, select Ports.

Confirm that any modem or ISDN devices that are attached to the computer are included in the list.
In the navigation pane, right-click Remote Access Logging and Policies, and then click Launch NPS. In the Network Policy Server navigation pane, select Network Policies.

Confirm that the NPS policies that are currently configured are those required for your environment. If you migrated them from an NPS source server to an NPS destination server, confirm that you are connected to the destination server and that the policies migrated successfully.

Dial-up configuration

You must confirm that the correct phone lines are attached to the modems or ISDN ports on the destination server.

Demand-dial VPN configuration

Examine all of your demand-dial VPN connections to ensure that they migrated with the correct settings.

To verify the settings for a demand-dial VPN connection

Start Server Manager.
In the navigation pane, expand Roles, expand Network Policy and Access Services, expand Routing and Remote Access, and then select Network Interfaces.
In the details pane, right-click a demand-dial interface, and then click Properties.

On each tab, confirm that the connection is configured the same as the source server, and then click OK.

Router settings

Confirm that the router components installed, and verify that each is configured correctly. The available routing components include:

IPv4: Static Routes, DHCP Relay Agent, IGMP, NAT, and RIPv2
IPv6: Static Routes and DHCPv6 Relay Agent

To verify the routing components

Start Server Manager.
In the navigation pane, expand Roles, expand Network Policy and Access Services, and then expand Routing and Remote Access.
Expand IPv4. Examine the list of installed routing components, and ensure that the components required for your deployment are installed.
Expand IPv6 and follow the same process as the previous step.
In the navigation pane, under IPv4, click General.

The details pane identifies the interfaces that are configured to route packets for each version of IP. Confirm that the list contains the expected interfaces, including configured demand-dial interfaces.
In the navigation pane, under IPv6, click General and follow the same process as the previous step.
In the details pane for General under IPv4, right-click each interface and select Properties.

On each tab confirm that the interface is configured as required for its routing role on the server.
Follow the same process as described in the previous step for the interfaces listed on the under IPv6 / General.
Under IPv4 select Static Routes and confirm that the routes to destination networks are correctly configured with the associated interface and destination gateway address.
Follow the same process as described in the previous step for the Static Routes under IPv6.
Under IPv4, select NAT. The details pane shows the interfaces that NAT is configured to use. Right-click each interface and click Properties.
- Confirm that each interface is configured correctly for NAT. There should be at least two interfaces enabled for NAT, one configured as the Private interface, and one configured as the Public interface.
- If NAT is responsible for providing IPv4 addresses to clients on the private network, then on NAT Properties page, on the Address Assignment tab, select the Automatically assign IP addresses by using the DHCP allocator check box and enter the address information to be used.
- If your ISP has provided a pool of addresses to be used by the NAT public interface, ensure that they are configured correctly. The addresses are under NAT, on the Properties page for the interface, on the Address Pool tab. If the addresses that were migrated are not applicable to the target computer, modify the list to use the correct addresses.
- For each interface under NAT, on the interface’s Properties page on the Services and Ports tab, examine the port mappings for services that must be routed to a specific server IP address. Confirm that each service that is to be mapped has the correct address pool entry, private IP address, and port settings configured.
Under IPv4, select each enabled routing protocol. The details pane shows the interfaces on which the selected routing protocol is enabled. Right-click each interface, and then click Properties.

Confirm that each interface is configured correctly for the selected routing protocol. For example, under IPv4/NAT, there should be at least two interfaces, one configured as the Private interface, and one configured as the Public interface.
Under IPv6, select each enabled routing protocol and follow the same process described in the previous step.
Under IPv4, right-click each routing protocol, and then select Properties to examine the global configuration for that routing protocol.

Confirm that each protocol is configured correctly for your environment. For example, ensure that the DHCP Relay Agent has a list of DHCP server addresses to which it can forward DHCP requests from clients.
Under IPv6, select each enabled routing protocol and follow the same process described in the previous step.

User and Group accounts

If you migrated the user and group accounts by using the Local User and Group Migration Guide (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=163774), follow the procedures in its verification section to confirm that the required users and group were migrated successfully.

If you instead used the -user and -group parameters on the Import-SmigServerSetting command, you can manually verify the accounts by using the Local Users and Groups MMC snap-in to examine the user and group accounts and confirm that the properties for the accounts are set properly.

Final checks

If your computer is configured to host VPN connections, test each type of supported VPN connection to confirm that users can connect.
If your server is configured to host dial-up connections, verify that client computers can successfully dial-in and connect to the server by using the modems that are installed.
If your server is configured as an IPv4 or IPv6 router, verify that clients on each attached network can connect through the router to computers on all of the other attached networks. If you use the ping command for this test, ensure that Windows Firewall on the router and the client computers is configured to allow ICMP Echo Request and ICMP Echo Reply messages.

Perform a Best Practices Analyzer scan

To verify that the Routing and Remote Access service is optimally configured on Windows Server 2008 R2 after migration, we recommend that you run a Best Practices Analyzer (BPA) scan on the role. BPA is a server management tool that is available in Windows Server 2008 R2. After the migration of the Routing and Remote Access service to the new Windows Server 2008 R2 computer is complete, BPA can help you reduce best practice violations by scanning the role service and reporting best practice violations. You can use the Server Manager console UI or Windows PowerShell to perform BPA scans and view the results. For detailed information about how to scan the role service and view the results, see the Best Practices Analyzer Help on the Windows Server TechCenter (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=122786).
