Remote Access Client

The Edge2WAN cloud firewall comes with a remote SSL-client for easy connectivity from any remote Microsoft Windows user. The VPN client is easy to install and provides secure encrypted communications with the main office for both teleworkers and road warriors.

VPN Client Installation

The VPN client installs easily and only requires a few configuration parameters, including the IP address of the Edge2WAN appliance to which it is connected along with a username and password for authentication. The client can also be configured to automatically failover to either a backup site or a backup WAN link on the Edge2WAN appliance.

The VPN client is extremely flexible in terms of where they can be used, whether in a hotel, a retail establishment, or a highly secure remote site, the client can typically be easily deployed. Because the client operates using the SSL protocol and not IPSec, it does not have issue with firewalls which NAT the connections, or other networking equipment like proxy servers. Additionally, with the build-in 3DES encryption engine and authentication requirement the clients provide a highly secure method for connecting back to the main office.
