Note: NETGEAR strongly recommends enabling HTTP meta tags for
security reasons and to prevent out-of-date web pages, themes, and
data being stored in a user’s web browser cache.
e. Check the “ActiveX web cache cleaner checkbox to load an ActiveX cache control
when users log in to the SSL VPN portal.
The web cache cleaner will prompt the user to delete all temporary Internet files,
cookies and browser history when the user logs out or closes the web browser
window. The ActiveX web cache control will be ignored by web browsers that don't
support ActiveX.
4. In the SSL VPN Portal Pages to Display section, check the checkboxes for the portal
pages you wish users to access. Any pages that are not selected will not be visible from
the portal navigation menu. Your choices are:
VPN Tunnel. Provides full network connectivity.
Port Forwarding. Provides access to specific defined network services.
5. Click Apply to confirm your settings.
The “Operation Successful” message appears at the top of the tab. Your new layout
appears in the List of Layouts table.
Configuring Domains, Groups, and Users
Remote users connecting to the SSL <Product Name> must be authenticated before being
allowed to access the network. The login window presented to the user requires three items:
a User Name, a Password, and a Domain selection. The Domain determines the
authentication method to be used and the portal layout that will be presented.
You must create name and password accounts for your SSL VPN users. When you create a
user account, you must specify a group. Groups are used to simplify the application of access
policies. When you create a group, you must specify a domain. Therefore, you should create
any needed domains first, then groups, then user accounts.
To configure Domains, Groups, and Users, see “Adding Authentication Domains, Groups,
and Users” on page 116.
Configuring Applications for Port Forwarding
Port Forwarding provides access to specific defined network services. To define these
services, you must specify the internal addresses and TCP applications (port numbers) that
will be intercepted by the Port Forwarding client on the user’s PC. The client will reroute this
traffic to the <Product Name>.
