Managing Connectivity

Applies To: Windows SBS 2008

The Connectivity page on the Network tab provides a central location where you can perform many of the networking tasks that are required to set up your network and assure that it continues to function smoothly. On this tab you can manage your Internet connection, Internet domain name, and certificates. You can manage the server firewall, create and manage a virtual private network (VPN) connection, configure the server to receive e-mail from POP3 e-mail accounts, and manage e-mail that you send and receive over the Internet.

If you experience an issue with your network, you can run the Fix My Network Wizard from this page.
