Windows 7: Infrastructure Planning and Design Guide for DirectAcce

Today, in support of the Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 joint launch, the Microsoft Solution Accelerators Team is pleased to announce the beta release of the Infrastructure Planning and Design Guide for DirectAccess that offers Microsoft customers and partners the best practice to streamline the planning and design process of a DirectAccess infrastructure.

DirectAccess is one of the key features shipped with the Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 operating systems this year. This feature of Windows offers users the ability to access corporate resources (such as e-mail servers, shared folders, or intranet Web sites) securely without connecting to a virtual private network (VPN).
