Answer 1

Simply, There are many ways to do that using ArcGIS, by network analyst.

First, make New network dataset with your road network only [Tutorial].

Second, you can use one of the following (also, there are other options):

• Closest Facility (good option): by defining your main point as facilities, and your other points as incidents. The result will be something like that:

• OD cost matrix: by defining your main point as the origin and other points as destinations.
