1.1.1 Remote User Access Secured by SSL

The secure remote access portal (user portal) makes it easy to give remote users secure access
to shared files on your home computers. The secure remote access uses SSL (the Secure
Socket Layer protocol), so no security software installation is required. Remote users can use
Internet Explorer or other standard web browsers. Here remote user A uses a web browser to
go to the secure remote access portal and securely access a shared file on a computer behind
the ZyXEL Device.
