Prevent Multi-Homing
When enabled, the Prevent Multi-Homing feature prevents the ability
for other network interfaces to be made available once a connection
has been established through the AT&T Global Network Client. For
example, this feature prevents an Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection from
becoming active while connected over a mobile connection.
Additionally, the user will not be able to install or enable any new
network interfaces through the Windows Control Panel while
connected.
Configuration
The Prevent Multi-Homing feature can be enabled by the user unless
the option to do so is disabled by the Customer Account Administrator through customization. See the
chapter on Customizations for more information on public properties of the AT&T Global Network Client.
User Preference
The user can be given the option to enable the Prevent Multi-Homing feature for one or more profiles
using the Enable additional adapter security (prevent multi-homing) property on the Preferences tab of
the Login Properties dialog.
AutoConnect Feature
Certain Mobile devices allow the AT&T Global Network Client to monitor the Connected state. When
supported by the mobile device, if the AT&T Global Network Client recognizes a mobile connection is
active, and the default Profile is Internet, the AT&T Global Network Client will reflect the Connected state
when the AT&T Global Network Client is launched.
Prevent Multi-
Homing Feature insures all
traffic flows through the
active connection
established by the AT&T
Client: Use it if you have
multiple connections and
need additional adapter
security.
