Linksets and links
You can add the following types of links to the portal Home tab:
• External — links directly to a web page. Suitable for external web sites.
• FTP — links to a directory on an FTP server.
A linkset is a set of one or more links. Each linkset configured for the domain can
be mapped to one or more groups and extended profiles in the domain. After the
client has been authenticated, the client’s portal page displays all the links
included in the linksets associated with the client’s group. The client’s portal page
also displays all the linksets associated with the client’s extended profile. For
information about mapping linksets to groups and extended profiles, see
“Mapping linksets to a group or profile using the CLI” on page 206 or “Mapping
linksets to a group or profile using the SREM” on page 223.
Autorun linksets
You can enable an autorun feature for a linkset so that all links defined for that
linkset execute automatically after the client has been authenticated. For example,
you can configure an autorun linkset to automatically link to the URL of the
remediation server, and then map this linkset to all extended profiles which filter
for clients who fail the TunnelGuard host integrity check.
No links for the autorun linkset display on the portal page. Each link in the linkset
opens in a new browser window. If the autorun linkset includes multiple links,
multiple browser windows will open. For information about configuring autorun,
see “Configuring linksets using the CLI” on page 411 or “Configuring linksets
using the SREM” on page 439.
The linkset autorun feature is similar to the portal feature allowing automatic
redirection to internal sites (see “Automatic redirection to internal sites” on
page 396). The linkset feature allows more granular control of this functionality.
Also, unlike the linkset autorun feature, the automatic redirection feature does not
open the link in a new browser window.
