Network Connector allows administrators to install, run, and manage remote connections that give users full network-layer connectivity over a virtual and secure transparent connection, giving users the same functionality they would have if they were connected to the corporate network.

Client/Server Connector provides out-of-the-box secure access to business-critical client/server applications including Exchange Server, Lotus Notes native client, Citrix, Microsoft Terminal Services, FTP, and Telnet while allowing straightforward configuration for any additional client/server application through a generic application definition tool.

Tunneling modes include:

• Port Forwarding: The client component listens on a specific local address and port and causes the application to send the TCP traffic to this address rather than to the real application server’s IP address. The secure socket layer (SSL) virtual private network (VPN) client then encapsulates the intercepted traffic within SSL and sends it to the gateway. Port forwarding is ideal for applications using static TCP ports, or with applications supporting an HTTP or SOCKS proxy.
• Socket Forwarding: The client component hooks into the Microsoft Winsock Service Provider interface. It uses Windows Layered Service Provider/Name Space Provider (LSP/NSP) interfaces and provides low-level socket handling. The NSP is used to resolve internal server names to ensure they will be tunneled. It provides full support for all Winsock applications—TCP, UDP and dynamic ports.
