When a user tries to log in to the
VPN, either through the Portal page
or through a VPN client, his or her
group membership determines the
access rights to different servers
and applications on the intranet.
This is done by associating one or
more access rules (each containing
parameters such as allowed network,
ports and paths) with a group.
Address Resolution Protocol. A
network layer protocol used to convert
an IP address into a physical address,
such as an Ethernet address. A host
wishing to obtain a physical address
broadcasts an ARP request onto the
TCP/IP network. The host on the
network that has the IP address in the
request then replies with its physical
hardware address.
Refers to links and access rules
specified for a user group directly
under the Group level. If extended
profiles are used, the base profile's
links and access rules will be
appended to the extended profile's
links and access rules.
