ZyWALL/USG SecuExtender (Windows)

The ZyWALL/USG automatically loads the ZyWALL/USG SecuExtender for Windows client program

to your computer after a successful login to an SSL VPN tunnel with network extension support

Note: For information on using the ZyWALL/USG SecuExtender for Mac client program,

please see its User's Guide at the download library on the ZyXEL website.

The ZyWALL/USG SecuExtender (Windows) lets you:

• Access servers, remote desktops and manage files as if you were on the local network.

• Use applications like e-mail, file transfer, and remote desktop programs directly without using a

browser. For example, you can use Outlook for e-mail instead of the ZyWALL/USG's web-based e-

• Use applications, even proprietary applications, for which the ZyWALL/USG does not offer SSL

application objects.

The applications must be installed on your computer. For example, to use the VNC remote desktop

program, you must have the VNC client installed on your computer.

The ZyWALL/USG SecuExtender icon color indicates the SSL VPN tunnel's connection status.

network resources.
