MCSE 20-218 question. How to specify network adapter to use when doing replication between sites?

Hi,

I know about the IP, DNS, SRV records, Dialup networking thing, RRAS, mutual
authentication. But where do you physically in windows server say, "ok when
replicating, dont go through the network card go through this dialup
connection that I have setup". Could not find anything in AD sites and
services.

The reason I'm using the infrared port (although I'll probably go through
the COM1 port on my laptop) is because its an old laptop with only pcmcia
slots, and they are already occupied. Why this strange setup? well im
studying for mcse and, also It would be nice to have a clean line just for
replication where i have a dedicated line between the laptops, totally
isolated from the rest of the network. Kinda like building my own secure
replication thingy.

Thanks for any help :)
