Note:
This are the recommended Servers used for u
-link Remote Access Service. If these are prohibited, the Clients may change to other servers displayed in the extended list.
If a Service PC (u
-link VPN client) or Router is passing a corporate firewall to access the Internet, please clarify with the responsible IT administration that the listed connection
types are allowed (if you have any connection problems).
We recommend to use the listed DNS names for Firewall settings. If possible avoid using the currently used IP addresses.
