The SonicWALL SSL VPN for UTM solution provides remote network level access for PC, Mac and Linux-based clients. This access allows SonicWALL UTM customers using SonicOS 5.2 or higher to have SSL VPN based client connectivity to their corporate network as part of their SonicWALL UTM system.
How it Works
The SonicWALL SSL VPN on UTM solution utilizes the SonicWALL NetExtender software in combination with a SonicWALL UTM appliance. The remote user only needs to have an internet connection and they can access their network through the SonicWALL portal from any web browser. A small (thin client) Active-X component is installed on the remote users system and connectivity is provided according to policies defined on the SonicWALL UTM device. All remote network traffic is processed by SonicWALL’s patented Re-assembly Free Deep Packet Inspection engine and other services on the SonicWALL UTM appliance to ensure the utmost in network protection.
Just the Beginning
Secure remote access utilizing SonicWALL SSL VPN on UTM is all some organizations will need to ensure they can securely connect remotely to their corporate network. SonicWALL also makes a complete line of SSL VPN appliances which offer capabilities that organizations may need depending on their size, network complexity or overall security needs.
What to Buy
With each SonicWALL UTM appliance running SonicOS5.2 or higher installed, you receive two SonicWALL UTM SSL VPN (NetExtender) clients. You can purchase additional clients in packages of 1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 clients, as noted below. The maximum number of clients on a given SonicWALL UTM system varies so please check the specifications before purchasing. When you purchase additional clients you will receive a perpetual license for those clients and as such no renewal is required. The SonicWALL UTM SSL VPN clients will be automatically updated as long as the SonicWALL UTM appliance on which they are installed is covered under product support.
