1.3.1 Enterprise Mode

In Enterprise mode, all applications, including those on the desktop and the toolbar, are enabled for
SSL, regardless of whether they were opened before or after connecting to SSL VPN. In this
approach, a thin client is installed on the user's workstation. In Enterprise mode, the IP Forwarding
feature is enabled by default.
Enterprise mode is recommended for devices that are managed by an organization, such as a laptop
provided by the organization for its employees. Enterprise mode supports the following:
Protocols such as TCP, UDP, ICMP, and NetBIOS.
Applications that open TCP connections on both sides, such as VoIP and FTP.
Enterprise applications such as CRM and SAP*.
Applications such as Windows File Sharing systems, the Novell Client
SecureLogin.
You can configure a user to connect only in Enterprise mode, depending on the role of the user. For
more information, see Section 4.2.1, "Configuring Users to Connect Only in Enterprise Mode or
Kiosk Mode," on page 56.
NOTE: If you have configured a user to connect in Enterprise mode only and that user does not
meet the prerequisites, the SSL VPN connection fails with an appropriate error message if it is using
the applet-based Web browser, or a blank screen if an ActiveX-based Web browser is used.
