Chapter 3. Considerations for deploying Access Connections

Collecting information about the various places where users might attempt to
connect and the kinds of connections available in those locations will help you
develop preconfigured profiles that users can import and use right away. By
capturing working configurations in profiles which can be deployed with the
initial image, support calls can be reduced and users can immediately take
advantage of their network connections without intervention.
An Administrator Feature is available with version 2.7 or later of Access
Connections. This feature simplifies the task of deploying location profiles, global
settings, and control policies to individuals or groups of individuals running
Access Connections in a corporate environment. The deployment of these profiles
and settings can be accomplished during the initial system deployment as part of
the preload image or after systems are in the field using standard remote
deployment methods.
