web
browsers. The
Deep Edge SSL VPN solution
requires client software installation, and is ideal for applications including web-based
email, business and government directories, file sharing, remote backup, remote system
management, and consumer-level electronic commerce.
When users have complete administrative rights over their endpoints and use a variety
of
applications, tunnel mode allows remote clients to access the local internal network
as if they
were connected to the network directly.
This section provides information about the features of SSL VPN available for configuration
in
the web-based manager. Only Deep Edge units
that run in NAT/Route mode support the SSL VPN feature.
