Secure Socket Layer Virtual Private Network (SSL VPN) provides simple and
secure remote access to home and office network resources. It provides the se-
curity level of IPSec, but with the simplicity of using a standard Web browser.
The unparalleled advantage of SSL VPN is its zero-configuration on the client's
end. Remote users can simply browse to Discus from any computer in the world
and run applications on its LAN computers. However, since SSL VPN is not a
tunnel such as PPTP or IPSec, only pre-defined applications may be used.
When using this feature, non-administrator remote users browsing to Discus will
be routed to the "SSL VPN Portal". This portal will present them each with their
list of applications.

stages—creating a remote desktop global shortcut, and launching the applica-
tion from a remote computer via the SSL VPN portal.
To create an RDP shortcut, perform the following:
1. Access the Secure Socket Layer VPN (SSL VPN) settings either from its
link under the 'VPN' menu item of the 'Services' screen, or by clicking the
'SSL VPN' icon in the 'Advanced' screen.

Administration' screen appears. In the 'Allow Incoming WAN Access to
