About Mobile VPN with SSL
DNS and WINS Servers
The Domain Name Service (DNS) changes host names into IP addresses. WINS changes NetBIOS
names to IP addresses. By default, SSL VPN users that connect to the Edge use the WINS and DNS
servers identified on the Network > Trusted page of your Edge configuration. If you want to specify
a different WINS or DNS server, add it in the DNS Server and WINS Server IP Address text boxes near
the bottom of the Mobile User page.
If your DNS provider requires it, specify a search name for your domain.
Enable debug logging
Select this check box to increase the verbosity of log messages for Mobile VPN with SSL. This is useful
if you have a problem that you must troubleshoot.
Download the client software
To download the Mobile VPN client software, connect to the Firebox with a web browser.
Each user must type:
https://IP address of a Firebox interface:4100/
or
https://Host name of the Firebox:4100/
The client software is also available on the Software Downloads section of the LiveSecurity web site.
You can download a version of the client software after you connect and authenticate. There are two available
versions: Windows and Mac OS X. If you are not configured as a Mobile VPN with SSL user, you see the standard
authentication dialog box.
After you download and install the client software, the Mobile VPN client software automatically connects to
the Firebox to get its configuration. Each time you connect to the Firebox, the client software checks for
configuration updates to make sure the client configuration is always current.
