Logging off a Remote Access VPN Site
You need to manually log off a VPN site, if it is a Remote Access VPN site
configured for Manual Login.
To log off a VPN site
• In the VPN Login Status box, click Logout.
All open tunnels from the Safe@Office appliance to the VPN site are closed,
and the VPN Login Status box closes.
Note: Closing the browser or dismissing the VPN Login Status box will also terminate
the VPN session within a short time.
Installing a Certificate
A digital certificate is a secure means of authenticating the Safe@Office appliance
to other Site-to-Site VPN Gateways. The certificate is issued by the Certificate
Authority (CA) to entities such as gateways, users, or computers. The entity then
uses the certificate to identify itself and provide verifiable information.
For instance, the certificate includes the Distinguished Name (DN) (identifying
information) of the entity, as well as the public key (information about itself). After
two entities exchange and validate each other's certificates, they can begin
encrypting information between themselves using the public keys in the
certificates.
The certificate also includes a fingerprint, a unique text used to identify the
certificate. You can email your certificate's fingerprint to the remote user. Upon
connecting to the Safe@Office VPN Server for the first time, the entity should
check that the VPN peer's fingerprint displayed in the SecuRemote VPN Client is
identical to the fingerprint received.
