Appendix D - Installing the Global VPN Client with a
Ghost Application
During the normal, non-Ghost installation of the Global VPN Client, a MAC address for the virtual adapter
is generated and assigned during the installation process. However, when the Global VPN Client is
installed with CmdLine=/g (Ghost) option, a default MAC address is assigned to the SonicWALL VPN
Adapter. After the installation when the Global VPN Client is started for the first time, this default MAC
address is detected, which in turn generates a new MAC address and assigns it to the SonicWALL VPN
Adapter.
Alert! DO NOT OPEN the Global VPN Client application after installing it and BEFORE you ghost it.
Global VPN Client installation with the CmdLine=/g option works by recognizing that it is the FIRST time
that the Global VPN Client has been started, and randomly creates a unique MAC address for the
SonicWALL VPN Adapter. If you open the Global VPN Client BEFORE using ghost, you receive the same
MAC address for the SonicWALL VPN Adapter resulting in network conflicts.
