Using SoftRemoteLT Instead of SoftRemote Basic

The SafeNet SoftRemote Basic VPN Client that is included with the firewall is only suitable for
establishing a local wireless IPSec connection with the FVM318 firewall. If your PC is mobile,
you may want to also use it to connect to your firewall over the Internet from a remote location. In
that case you will need a full VPN Client. SafeNet's SoftRemoteLT VPN Client (or another
version of SafeNet's full client) will serve both purposes.
Note: Before installing the SafeNet SoftRemote Basic VPN Client software, be sure to
turn off any virus protection or firewall software you may be running on your PC.
