Select Apply or OK to save the new web portal.

Available for Windows XP and Windows Vista client PCs, the virtual desktop feature

completely isolates the SSL VPN session from the client computer's desktop environment.

All data is encrypted, including cached user credentials, browser history, cookies,

temporary files, and user files created during the session. When the SSL VPN session

ends normally, the files are deleted. If the session ends due to a malfunction, files might

remain, but they are encrypted, so the information is protected.

When the user starts an SSL VPN session with virtual desktop enabled, the virtual

desktop replaces the user's normal desktop. When the virtual desktop exits, the user's

normal desktop is restored.

Select OK to save the configuration and Cancel to exit the

configuration window without any saving changes made. If you select

OK, the main portal configuration window appears.
