You can configure the RAS Server via the CX Configuration tool in the Control Panel on your CE device:
1. Open the Start Menu and go to the Control Panel
2. Start the configuration program by double-clicking CX Configuration
3. Navigate to the tab RAS Control
The Windows CE RAS Server is disabled by default. To enable it, simply perform the following steps in the
Beckhoff CX Configuration Tool:
1. Click on the checkbox Enable RAS Server
2. Select one or more connection channels (lines) and click on Enable Line. These channels configure
whether you want to use an attached mode for the dial in or the network (VPN). Both settings will be
described in more detail below
3. Add a user account which may dial in via one of the lines. Please note that this user account is not to
be mixed with user accounts used for accessing a SMB share!!

address. The available options for IP addressing are: DHCP, AutoIP (default), Static
When finished, click on OK and restart your system. You should always use this graphical tool to setup
the RAS Server. However, if you want to further customize your RAS setup, you can make more detailed
settings by modifying the Windows CE registry:
1. Open the Start Menu and click on Run…
2. Enter regedit and click on OK. The Registry Editor opens
